Crushed Concrete in Jacksonville
Crushed concrete is recycled demolition material that compacts into a stable base. You buy it by the ton online, and Gravel Monkey delivers it to your Jacksonville address in a dump truck.
Jacksonville gets about 59 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage matters. Crushed concrete handles it well because it locks together and lets water pass.
Crushed Concrete Products Available from Gravel Monkey in Jacksonville
Gravel Monkey stocks five grades of crushed concrete, each suited to a different part of the job. The smallest sizes work for top dressing, and the largest sizes handle deep fill and mud control.
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Works for most residential base needs. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Best where a smooth finish is needed. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Highest density after compaction; go-to for driveways. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | For parking areas and slab subbases. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Adds stability in soft, wet ground. |

Jacksonville Climate and Soil Considerations for Crushed Concrete
About 81 days a year in Jacksonville bring a tenth of an inch of rain or more. That means scheduling delivery onto firm ground avoids the truck sinking or rutting the lawn. The ground is wet often enough to plan a dry window.
Soils mapped in the Jacksonville area are commonly moderately well drained. That reduces the amount of base stone needed under the surface layer. Around 63 days a year drop below 32F, which sets the work window and affects how much the ground shifts with freezing and thawing.
Ground freezing here is not a significant factor, so the base layer does not need extra depth to resist frost heave. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts.
Estimating How Much Crushed Concrete You Need
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton, and the volume a ton covers depends on the depth of the layer. Use the material calculators to convert your square footage and desired depth into the right tonnage. Measure the area and decide the depth before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Concrete in Jacksonville
Does the ground in Jacksonville freeze hard enough to change when I should order?
No. While about 63 days a year drop below 32F, ground freezing is not significant here. You can order crushed concrete year-round without adjusting for a freeze-thaw cycle.
Is Jacksonville wet enough that drainage should drive the choice?
Yes. With about 59 inches of precipitation a year, drainage matters. The good news is that local soil soaks up water quickly, so less drainage stone is needed under the surface layer.
Is crushed concrete as good as crushed stone for a base?
Yes. Crushed concrete is recycled and costs less per ton. Both materials are angular and compact well. For most base applications, crushed concrete performs just as well as crushed stone.
How deep should the layer be for a job that carries vehicles?
The depth depends on the load. For light vehicle access, 4 inches may be enough. For heavy trucks, 6 inches or more is common. Use the material calculators to find the right tonnage for your depth.
