Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Wellington address and unloads right where you point.
Wellington gets about 6 inches of precipitation a year. That low rainfall means washout is rarely a concern for a crushed concrete base, but drainage planning still matters where snowmelt concentrates. The angular particles in crushed concrete lock together well in dry conditions, making it a stable choice for the area.
Whether you are fixing a driveway or building a pad, crushed concrete gives you a compacted base that holds up under load. It is a recycled material that performs like crushed stone and costs less per ton.
The most ordered size in Wellington is the 3/4" crushed concrete, which works as a compacting base for driveways and parking areas. Other sizes fill specific needs from fine grading to heavy fill. Each product is available by the ton with delivery to your address.
| Product | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Mixed sizes for many compaction jobs. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Smooth surface for pathways or under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best all-around choice for driveways and slabs. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger stone for extra load bearing. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used where you need to build up a soft area. |
The table below pairs common projects with the product and depth that works best in Lyon County conditions. Depths assume a standard compacted base on stable soil.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches, no compaction needed for short use. |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 inches compacted, topped with 3/8" for finish. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 inches minimum, compacted in lifts. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 12 inches wide, compacted in 6-inch layers. |
| Parking pad | Crushed Concrete (mixed) | 4 to 6 inches compacted; fines help lock it. |
The ground around Wellington is in hydrologic group C, meaning it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under driveways and pads because surface runoff can undermine a thin base. About 173 days a year drop below 32F, so freeze-thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Plan to complete the base before the ground freezes in late fall.
Wellington gets about 18 inches of snowfall a year. Plowing a loose crushed concrete surface can push material aside and create ruts, so compact the top layer well or top with a finer grade if you plow. The frost depth here is moderate but real, and a base that is at least 6 inches deep handles ground movement better.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton, and the volume you need depends on the area and the depth of the base. Use the material calculators on our site to convert square footage and depth into tons. The calculator works for any shape and accounts for compaction loss.

Many buyers pair crushed concrete with other aggregates. The following materials are available for delivery in Wellington.
The best time is late spring through early fall, before the ground freezes. With about 173 freezing days a year, working when temperatures stay above 32F gives you time to compact the base properly and let it settle.
No. Wellington gets only about 6 inches of precipitation a year. Washout is not a primary concern, but surface runoff from snowmelt or infrequent heavy rain can still erode an uncompacted base, so proper grading and compaction matter.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton, not by the cubic yard. The weight per cubic yard varies by moisture and particle size, so our online calculator converts your area and depth into tons. Delivery is priced by the ton.
