Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your High Ridge address and unloads right where you point.
Jefferson County permitted about 695 single-family homes in 2024, and many of those properties sit on ground that needs a solid base. Whether it is a new driveway, a workshop pad or a parking area, crushed concrete offers a budget-friendly compacting material. High Ridge gets about 44 inches of rain a year, so planning for drainage matters from the start.
Using recycled concrete keeps the cost down while giving you the angular, interlocking particles that hold firm under a load. The delivered price includes the material and the dump truck drop at your address.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes, each suited to a different job layer. The larger sizes handle deep fill and mud, while the finer grades work as a top dressing. Choose the one that matches your project stage.
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose blend for driveways and pads |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Best for pathways and final grade |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Most common for residential driveways |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Used under pavers or concrete slabs |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Ideal for low spots and soft ground |
Each project has a different load and drainage need. Match the size and depth to the problem you are solving.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches for stable subgrade |
| Backfill behind a wall | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Free-draining, no compaction needed |
| Temporary site access | Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches over geotextile fabric |
| Parking pad | 3/8" Crushed Concrete | 2 to 3 inches over a compacted base |
Soils mapped in the High Ridge area are commonly moderately well drained. That means water moves through them at a moderate pace, so the base layer beneath your crushed concrete may need extra depth in spots where drainage is slower. Ground around High Ridge is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer of 4 to 6 inches of larger crushed concrete earns its place where runoff concentrates.
With about 72 days a year that bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling your delivery onto firm ground is smart. The 10 inches of snowfall each year can mean plowing across a loose surface, which pushes the crushed concrete into the lawn. Compact the top layer well to avoid that. Winters here have about 105 days below 32F, which narrows the work window and can move an unsettled base. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Frost in the ground is real but moderate. Plan the base depth so that the crushed concrete sits below the freeze line where heavy vehicles will travel. These facts are area guidance; your specific site may vary.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. A cubic yard of crushed concrete weighs roughly 1.4 tons. Measure the length and width of your area, multiply by the depth in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Multiply that number by 1.4 to find tons. Use our material calculators to get a close estimate before you order.

The minimum load is 1 ton. With about 72 wet days a year, scheduling delivery on a dry day helps avoid rutting during placement.
Yes, we deliver to High Ridge and nearby communities. Winters here have about 105 freezing days, so ordering early in the season can help you beat the cold.
Larger sizes, like 2 to 3 inches, are used for deep fill and mud control. Medium sizes, like 3/4 inch, compact into a firm base. Smaller sizes, like 3/8 inch, work as a leveling surface.
Use metal or plastic edging driven into the soil along the perimeter. The edge holds the crushed concrete in place and keeps the border clean. For driveways, a larger base layer that extends past the visible edge also helps.
