Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Cadillac address and unloads right where you point.
Wexford County properties from rural lanes to in-town lots often need a strong, affordable base. With about 35 inches of precipitation a year, drainage and washout planning matter when you put down a new surface.
Crushed concrete gives you that angular compaction at a lower cost per ton than quarried stone. It works under driveways, parking pads, and temporary access roads where a solid foundation is the goal.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes, each matched to a different part of your project. The larger pieces handle deep fill and mud, while the finer grades top-dress and level. Pick the size that matches your layer depth.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose size for most base layers |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works for paths and thin finish coats |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best for driveways and parking areas |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Handles larger loads and freeze-thaw |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | For soft spots and raising grades |
Each job needs a specific size and depth. The table below matches the most frequent projects to the right crushed concrete product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches on soft ground |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 inches minimum, compact in lifts |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches, then top with 3/4" |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Drainage layer, 12 inches wide |
About 78 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters so the truck can spread the load without bogging down. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts.
Roughly 175 days a year drop below 32F. That long freeze-thaw cycle shortens the work window and makes the ground heave more than in milder climates. A deeper base layer of crushed concrete resists that movement better.
Soils mapped in the Cadillac area are commonly very poorly drained. That fact pushes you toward a thicker base stone under the surface layer. The ground around Cadillac is in dual hydrologic group A/D. Where it is drained it soaks water up quickly; where it is not, most rain runs across the surface. So drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
Snowfall averages about 93 inches a year. Plowing can damage a loose surface, so a compacted crushed concrete layer holds up better under the blade. Ground freezing here is deep and long, which is another reason to make the base thick enough to stay stable through the winter.
Ordering by the ton means you need to know the volume of your project. Measure the length and width in feet, multiply by the depth in inches, and divide by 12 to get cubic feet. A ton of crushed concrete covers roughly 80 to 100 square feet at 4 inches deep, but that varies by size. Use our material calculators to get a precise tonnage for your space.
Order online by the ton, and your delivered price is calculated by ZIP at checkout. A dump truck brings 1 to 40-plus tons straight to your address. Free delivery applies on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 and get $50 off your first order.
The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order. You choose a morning or afternoon window. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. You get an email confirmation, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck.

Crushed concrete pairs well with these materials for complete job coverage.
The smallest load is 1 ton. Since Cadillac has about 78 wet days a year, scheduling your delivery onto firm ground is important, and a 1-ton load is easy to place even in wet conditions.
Yes, we deliver to Cadillac and surrounding areas. With about 175 freezing days a year, we schedule deliveries to work within the ground conditions, ensuring you get your material when it is easiest to work with.
The 3/4" Crushed Concrete is the most common size. It compacts well, supports vehicle weight, and works as both a base and a finish layer for most residential projects.
The sizes range from 3/8 inch for fine leveling up to 2 to 3 inches for deep fill. Smaller pieces compact into a smooth surface; larger pieces provide structural strength and drainage. Choose based on the depth and load of your project.
