Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Gautier address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed concrete is recycled aggregate that looks like crushed stone but costs less per ton. Both materials are angular and compact well, so buyers often ask which to choose. Gautier gets about 68 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout planning matter more than with a pricier material.
For base layers, driveways and fill, crushed concrete is the budget-friendly choice. If you need a decorative top coat with consistent color, look at crushed stone instead.
Each crushed concrete size is suited to a different job. The table below shows what each product works for and what it is not suited for.
| Product | What it is for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Not suited for decorative use; best under paving or asphalt. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Not suited for heavy-traffic driveways; washes out easily without binder. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Not suited as a final surface for vehicle parking. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Not suited for pedestrian walkways without a wearing layer. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Not suited for shallow applications; leaves voids if not compacted. |
Match the project to the right size. Depth recommendations assume a firm subgrade and proper compaction.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 12 inches compacted in lifts |
| Parking pad | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 10 inches base, top with 3/4" |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete (general) | 6 inches compacted over geotextile |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Fill to grade, compact to 95% |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 12 to 18 inches over soft ground |
Gautier sees about 75 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important. A truck can rut a soft yard, so pick a dry stretch. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts.
The area gets about 26 freezing days per year. Temperatures drop below 32F roughly that many times, but the ground does not freeze deep. That shrinks the work window only slightly and reduces how much base stone you need under the surface layer. With about 0 inches of snowfall each year, plowing damage to a loose crushed concrete surface is not a concern.
Soils mapped in the Gautier area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. This area guidance suggests more base stone under the surface layer to keep water moving. Ground around Gautier is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place here.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. To estimate how many tons a project needs, measure the area in square feet, multiply by the depth in inches, then divide by 12 to get cubic feet. One ton covers roughly 100 square feet at 2 inches deep, but that varies by material. Use our material calculators to get a more precise number for your specific project.
Ordering is simple. Choose the product and amount online, enter your ZIP code for delivery pricing, and pick a delivery window. Loads run from one ton to 40+. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date, and you pick a morning or afternoon window at checkout. A valid phone number is required to confirm delivery; orders without one can be delayed. You receive 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 agree to be available or to have someone at the site during the delivery window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they safely can. First-time customers can use code FIRSTTIMER50 to take $50 off their first order. All deliveries are priced by ZIP at checkout, and free delivery applies on qualifying orders.

Crushed concrete works best when paired with the right companion materials. Consider these for a complete job.
No. Gautier sees about 26 freezing days per year, but the ground does not freeze deep. That means you can order crushed concrete year-round without worrying about frost heave. The main timing concern is rainfall, not frozen ground.
Winter rainfall and wet ground affect scheduling more than cold. Gautier gets about 75 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so choose a dry spell. Delivery windows are still available in winter; just plan for the ground to be firm.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. You order a specific weight online, and a dump truck delivers it in one load. The calculator shows tonnage for your dimensions. There are no bag sizes or pallets; it is bulk material only.
