Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Reidsville address and unloads right where you point.
Reidsville gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year. That means crushed concrete surfaces need good drainage to avoid washouts and standing water. Grading the base away from structures and choosing the right product size helps keep the material stable through wet weather.
Crushed concrete is a recycled alternative to crushed stone that compacts well and costs less per ton. Because it is angular, it locks together under weight, making it a solid base for driveways, pads, and access paths.
Not every size is right for every task. Some are too coarse for a finished surface, while others lack the strength for heavy traffic. The table below lists each product and what it is best used for.
| Product | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Not suitable for a top dressing because it contains fines that stay dusty when dry. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Too small for a load-bearing base on soft soil. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Does not work as a decorative surface because it looks like gray gravel. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Not needed for light foot traffic or walkways. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Too large for compaction into a smooth driving surface. |
The table below matches common project types to the recommended product and depth, helping you plan your order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches deep over a geotextile fabric |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compacted in lifts of 6 inches |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Compact to at least 95% proctor |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 inches compacted, then a top layer of 3/8" if needed |
Reidsville sees about 79 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That can make scheduling tricky because wet ground makes compaction harder. Plan to have the delivery set down on firm, dry soil to get a good start. About 76 days a year drop below 32 degrees, so you may lose work days in winter, though the ground itself does not freeze deep enough to shift a well-compacted base.
With roughly 7 inches of snow each year, plowing a crushed concrete driveway can push the loose top layer around. A compacted base with a finer surface like 3/8 inch crushed concrete holds up better under a blade. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is.
Soils mapped in the Reidsville area are commonly well drained, so less base stone is needed under the crushed concrete layer. Ground around Reidsville takes water in at a moderate rate, meaning standard base depth is usually enough for most residential projects.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton, and the amount you need depends on the area and the compacted depth. Measure the length and width in feet, multiply by the depth in inches, and divide by a factor that accounts for compaction. You can use our material calculators to turn your project dimensions into an approximate tonnage before you place your order.
Ordering is done entirely online. You choose the product, enter the tonnage, and get a delivery price based on your ZIP code during checkout. A dump truck brings the load to your address, typically between 1 and 40 tons per delivery. Qualifying orders over a certain amount come with free delivery. First-time customers can use code FIRSTTIMER50 to get $50 off.
Delivery must be scheduled at least 3 business days ahead. You pick a morning or afternoon window, and Gravel Monkey sends an email confirmation right away. A second email arrives closer to the date with the exact window and a photo of the material being loaded. You must approve that email to confirm the delivery. Someone needs to be present during the window, and the site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. For more details, see the delivery information page. Customer reviews offer real feedback on the process, and you can read more about the company on the about Gravel Monkey page. Crushed concrete is sourced from regional suppliers, so the exact color and texture can vary by area.
Crushed concrete often pairs with other materials to complete a job. The list below shows materials you can order together.
Yes, winter can cause delays. Reidsville has about 76 days a year below freezing, so icy conditions may slow trucks or make the ground too hard to spread material. Gravel Monkey keeps you updated on any major delay.
No. Ground freezing here is not a significant factor, so the base depth required is the same as in milder areas. Standard recommendations for crushed concrete apply.
Delivery must be set at least 3 business days after you order. You choose a morning or afternoon window during checkout. After ordering, you get an email confirmation, then a second email later with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. You must approve that second email before the delivery proceeds.
3/4 inch crushed concrete is the most common size for general base work. It compacts well under driveways, parking pads, and walks, and it locks together to hold heavy loads.
Once you have your project dimensions, use the material calculators to find the tonnage. You can then place your order on the Reidsville city page to get delivery to your address.
Wentworth, Eden, and other nearby areas also stock crushed concrete through Gravel Monkey.
