Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Nebraska City address and unloads right where you point.
Nebraska City gets about 33 inches of precipitation a year. That kind of rainfall makes drainage and washout planning a real concern for any gravel or base surface. Crushed concrete is an ideal choice because its angular particles lock together and shed water well.
Whether you are building a driveway, a parking area, or a base for a new slab, crushed concrete offers a durable, compactable surface that holds up to both wet weather and heavy loads. It is a recycled product that delivers the same performance as quarried stone at a lower cost.
Gravel Monkey carries five crushed concrete sizes for Nebraska City customers. The most popular order is the 3/4" Crushed Concrete, which works as a standard compacting base for driveways and pads. Each size has a specific job, so choosing the right one saves time and material.
| Product | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A blend of sizes for most base and fill jobs |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Smooth finish for walkways and final grade |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best all-around choice for driveways and parking areas |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger stone for deeper strength in soft ground |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Coarse material for wet spots and thickening the base |
The right product depends on the project and the depth needed. Use this table to match the job to the best size.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Temporary site access | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches to handle heavy equipment |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete (blend) | 6 inches minimum, top with 3/8" for a smooth ride |
| Grade raising under a slab | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 12 to 18 inches to stabilize the subgrade |
Ground around Nebraska City is mapped as hydrologic group C, meaning the soil takes in water slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That runoff behavior makes a deeper drainage layer earn its place, especially for driveways and base courses that see heavy rain.
About 136 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, so the work window for compaction is limited to the warmer months. Deep and long ground freezing here means the base layer needs to be thick enough to resist movement when the frost comes out in spring. Snowfall averages about 24 inches a year, and plowing can dig into a loose surface if the crushed concrete is not compacted properly.
Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts. Ordering enough depth now keeps the surface stable through that seasonal shift.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. To estimate the right quantity, measure the length and width of the area in feet and multiply by the desired depth in inches. Divide that cubic footage by the material's compacted density, which averages around 1.3 tons per cubic yard for crushed concrete. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to get a tonnage figure for your specific dimensions and product.

Crushed concrete works with other aggregates and supplies for a complete job. Many Nebraska City customers order these materials on the same delivery.
The amount depends on the area and depth. A 10-foot by 20-foot driveway at 6 inches deep takes about 3.7 tons of compacted crushed concrete, assuming an average density of 1.3 tons per cubic yard.
