Buy Crushed Concrete in Polo, Missouri

Order crushed concrete by the ton online in Polo. A dump truck brings the load to your address and drops it where you mark the spot. You choose the delivery window at checkout and the material arrives on the day you pick, at least 3 business days out.

Polo gets about 40 inches of precipitation a year. That makes drainage and washout planning more important when preparing the area where the crushed concrete will go.

Crushed Concrete Sizes Available in Polo

Crushed concrete is a recycled base material that compacts well. The smaller sizes work as a top dressing, while the larger sizes form a stable base under weight. All sizes cost less than virgin stone because the material is recovered from demolished concrete.

Choosing the Right Crushed Concrete for Common Projects in Polo

Crushed concrete is a budget option compared to crushed stone. The table below shows what size to order for five typical jobs.

How Local Conditions in Polo Affect Your Crushed Concrete Job

Soils mapped in the Polo area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. This means you may need more base stone under the surface layer to keep the crushed concrete from sinking into the ground. The ground around Polo is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.

About 131 days a year drop below 32F. That freezing and thawing cycle can push a thin base out of shape. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts. Planning for a deeper base from the start reduces the chance of repairs later.

How Much Crushed Concrete You Need

Tonnage depends on the area, the depth and the material's weight per cubic yard. Use our material calculators to get a rough tonnage for your project. Enter the length, width and depth, and the tool shows the tons required. Always order a little extra to account for compaction and waste.

Frequently Asked Questions about Crushed Concrete in Polo

How many tons of crushed concrete do I need for my project?

The number of tons depends on the area in square feet and the depth in inches. A typical driveway base uses 6 to 8 inches of crushed concrete, which works out to roughly 1 ton per 80 to 100 square feet. Use our material calculators for a precise estimate based on your dimensions.

Do winter conditions in Polo affect delivery?

Polo sees about 14 inches of snowfall a year, and the ground freezes deep and long. Plowing can damage a loose crushed concrete surface if it is not compacted. We schedule deliveries year-round, but the delivery window depends on site access. If the ground is frozen or snow-covered, the truck can still deliver as long as the access road is clear and the driver can safely reach the drop spot.

Do I need to be home when the truck arrives?

Yes. You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the delivery window. If no one is there, the delivery may be missed and a redelivery fee can apply. The order is not refunded if the delivery cannot be completed because no one is present.

Is there a discount on a first order?

Yes. Use the code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to get $50 off your first order. The code applies to any crushed concrete product and is valid on orders that meet the delivery minimums.
