Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Devils Lake address and unloads right where you point.
When you are building a driveway or a parking pad in Devils Lake, you need a base that holds up through deep frost cycles. Crushed concrete, such as 3/4" Crushed Concrete and 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete, provides an angular compacting material that resists shifting.
The area gets about 20 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matters. Crushed concrete drains well, helping water move through the base rather than pooling.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes for different layers of a project. Use the table below to pick the right grade.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Works for driveways, pads, and as a compacting fill. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Screens well for a smooth surface under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | The go-to for a stable, compacted base layer. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Provides structural depth before smaller stone. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Large pieces for soft ground or raising grades. |
Choosing between a budget-friendly crushed concrete base and a longer-term option often comes down to compaction. The table below shows projects and the right product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compact to 4 to 6 inches for light vehicles. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Provides drainage and reduces pressure. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Fill raised areas, top with 3/4" for compaction. |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | Good value; use as a base before paving. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Spread thick over mud to support equipment. |
Devils Lake sees about 191 days a year below freezing. That long freeze cycle means the ground moves, and an unstable base can heave. To avoid problems, the base layer needs to be thick enough and properly compacted before the frost sets in.
The area gets about 20 inches of precipitation a year, mostly as snow. About 38 inches of snowfall means plowing damage to a loose surface. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts. So drainage and a solid base are critical.
Ramsey County permitted about 1 single-family home in 2024. That county figure suggests most crushed concrete here goes into existing driveways, parking pads, or rural access rather than new builds.
To estimate tons, measure length and width in feet, multiply by depth in feet, and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 tons per cubic yard for crushed concrete. Use our material calculators to get a precise number for your project.
