Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Marietta address and unloads right where you point.
Marietta gets about 44 inches of precipitation a year. That much rain means drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel project. Crushed concrete compacts into a tight surface that sheds water well.
This recycled material handles the local weather better than loose fill. It locks together under a compactor and stays put through wet spells. For driveways, bases, and backfill, it is a practical choice.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes. The most popular is the 3/4-inch grade for compacting under pavement. The table below lists all the options we carry, with a note on what each one does best.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A blend of sizes, works for many fill and base jobs. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Dust-free surface for paths and under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Locks tight under a plate compactor for roads and pads. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger stone for high-load subbase layers. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Bridging stone for soft ground and temporary access. |
Different projects need different sizes and depths. The table below shows the typical match for five common uses around Marietta.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compact in two lifts for a solid foundation. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Lay 6 to 8 inches; the large stone spreads loads on wet ground. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Fill and compact in layers to avoid settling. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Drains well and reduces lateral pressure. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Top with fines for a smooth, hard surface. |
About 112 days a year drop below freezing in Marietta. That many freeze-thaw cycles work loose material that is not compacted right. The angular edges of crushed concrete lock together and resist the heaving that round gravel would show.
The ground around Marietta is in hydrologic group C, meaning it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. Because of that, a deeper drainage layer under your crushed concrete earns its place. It keeps water from pooling underneath and pushing up through freeze cycles.
Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. About 88 wet days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground helps avoid rutting. And with around 16 inches of snowfall, plowing can scrape a loose surface if it is not fully compacted.
Tonnage depends on the area you are covering, the depth you need, and the product size. For a rough idea, use our material calculators to convert cubic feet to tons. No two jobs are exactly alike, so the calculator gives a starting point for your order.

It depends on the area and depth you are filling. Given Marietta's 112 freezing days a year, you want a full base depth to resist heave. Use our material calculators to get a tonnage estimate based on your dimensions.
