Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Grenada address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed concrete is a common choice for driveways, parking areas, and base layers in Grenada. A typical residential project uses several tons, though the exact amount depends on the area and depth you need. Grenada County permitted about 5 new single-family homes in 2024, so most work here involves improving existing properties rather than new construction.
Made from recycled concrete pavements and structures, crushed concrete offers the same angular, compactable qualities as crushed stone at a lower cost. It binds well under traffic and drains better than rounded gravel, making it a practical base material.
Crushed concrete is sold in several graded sizes. Choose the one that matches your project layer.
| Product | Purpose | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose compactable base for drives, pads, and paths. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Top-dressing for existing gravel drives or leveling base layers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | The go-to size for most compacted base applications. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Used under heavy-duty drives and equipment pads. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | For deep fill, mud control, or temporary site access. |
Match the crushed concrete size to the problem you are fixing. This table shows common jobs and the material to use.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compact to a firm surface. |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | Good compaction with a roller. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Provides traction and drains water. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Fill and compact in layers. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Free-draining and easy to place. |
Grenada receives about 60 inches of rain each year, with roughly 78 days bringing at least 0.1 inch. Good drainage and a crowned surface help prevent washout on drives and pads built with crushed concrete.
About 70 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and the ground freezes to a moderate depth. Freeze-thaw cycles can unsettle a poorly compacted base. Annual snowfall averages about 1 inch, which can cause plowing damage to a loose surface. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Soils mapped in the Grenada area are commonly moderately well drained. The ground falls into dual hydrologic group C/D. Where drained, it takes water slowly and sheds runoff; where not, water runs across the surface. Drainage planning is more important here than in many areas. A deeper base beneath the surface layer helps manage water movement.
To figure out how many tons of crushed concrete you need, measure the length and width of your project area and decide on the depth. Multiply these numbers and use our material calculators to get a tonnage estimate. The calculator also factors in compaction and waste.

You must be available during the window or nominate someone. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. For full details, see Delivery information.
The best time is late spring through early fall, when the ground is less likely to freeze and there are fewer rainy days. Grenada has about 78 wet days a year, so scheduling during drier months helps delivery and compaction.
The smallest load is 1 ton. Grenada County permitted about 5 new single-family homes in 2024, so many orders here are for smaller projects like parking pads and walkways. A 1-ton load can handle a small area.
Choose the size based on the layer you are building. Use 3/8" for leveling, 3/4" for a standard base, 1"-1 1/2" for heavy loads, and 2"-3" for deep fill or mud control. The product table above has more detail.
