Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Wilton address and unloads right where you point.
A dump truck pulls up to the address you give. You mark the spot where you want the load dropped. One drop, one pile, and you spread it yourself. About 184 days a year drop below freezing in Wilton, so crushed concrete is a good choice for base work that has to handle frost heave.
Crushed concrete is the recycled option. It behaves like angular stone once compacted, and it costs less per ton than virgin rock. Many customers in and around Wilton use it for driveways, parking pads, and under-slab fill because they get the same compaction at a lower price.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes. The finer grades work as a top layer, while the larger ones form the compacting base. Choose the size that fits the stage of your project.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A blended size that works for most base and fill jobs |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Smooth enough for walkways and top lifts on a driveway |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Angular particles lock together for a firm base layer |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger rock spreads load and resists settling under weight |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Coarse material that lets water drain and stabilizes soft ground |
The table below pairs typical projects with a budget-friendly crushed concrete option and a longer-lasting choice. Depth notes help you plan the amount.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete base, then 3/8" Crushed Concrete surface | 4 to 6 inches base, 2 inches top |
| Grade raising under a slab | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete fill | Fill to the required grade, compact in lifts |
| Temporary site access | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches, can be topped later |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete (general blend) | 6 to 8 inches compacted, then a wear course |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Drains well, reduces hydrostatic pressure |
Wilton gets about 19 inches of precipitation a year. That is not a lot, but the rain that falls needs somewhere to go. A crushed concrete base drains well because the angular pieces leave voids. If your project is in a low spot, plan for a thicker base or a side drain to keep water from washing out the fines.
About 42 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means you can schedule a delivery around dry days, but you will have wet ground to work around some weeks. Firm soil under the truck is important. If you can, book the drop when the ground is not saturated. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. The deep frost in Wilton means a 6-inch base of compacted 3/4" crushed concrete handles heave better than a thin layer would.
Snowfall averages about 44 inches a year. Plowing a loose crushed concrete surface can displace the top layer unless it is well compacted or covered with a finer grade. Soils mapped in the Wilton area are commonly well drained, so water moves through them at a moderate rate. That means a standard base depth is usually enough for most residential projects. The soil water behavior here lets water infiltrate at a moderate rate, which reduces the need for extra underdrain in most cases.
Tonnage depends on the area you are covering and the depth you choose. A cubic yard of crushed concrete weighs roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons, but the exact number varies by moisture and compaction. Use the material calculators on this site to enter your dimensions and get a tonnage estimate. The calculator also shows you how many tons fit in a typical dump truck load.
You order online by the ton. At checkout, the delivery price is calculated by your ZIP code. The truck comes to your address with the material in a single drop. Loads run from 1 ton up to 40 tons or more, depending on the truck size and your project. Orders over a certain total qualify for free delivery. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to get $50 off your first order.
Delivery is scheduled at least 3 business days after you order. You choose a morning window (7 am to 12 pm) or an afternoon window (12 pm to 5 pm). A valid phone number is required. You get an email confirmation when you order, then a second email closer to delivery with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. You must approve that second email before the truck rolls. Someone needs to be available at the site during the window. If access is restricted or no one is there, a redelivery fee may apply.

Crushed concrete works as a base for many surfaces. These materials complement it or replace it depending on the job.
Yes. About 184 days a year drop below 32F, and the frost goes deep. If the ground is frozen when you order, you can still have the material delivered and stockpiled. Spreading and compacting a base should wait until the ground thaws. Plan your order for late spring or early fall when the soil is workable.
About 42 days a year see measurable rain. That is roughly one in every eight days. If the forecast shows rain on your chosen delivery day, the ground may be soft and the truck may struggle to get close. Check the forecast and choose a window with a few dry days before and after.
You pick the spot. The driver will dump the crushed concrete where you indicate, as long as the truck can reach it safely. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck to drive in. If access is tight, the crew unloads as close as they can.
For most base applications, yes. Crushed concrete compacts to a firm, stable layer. It is slightly softer than virgin crushed stone, so it can break down more under heavy loads over time. It costs less per ton and is a recycled product. For a residential driveway or parking pad, it performs well. For a high-traffic commercial lot, crushed stone may last longer.
Delivery works the same for every customer. You pick the size, choose a delivery day at least 3 business days out, and mark the drop spot. The truck arrives in the window you selected. Visit the Wilton hub page to see all materials available for your area.
