Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Wellston address and unloads right where you point.
Wellston gets about 80 freezing days a year, which pushes the schedule for placing a crushed concrete base. Most contractors work the ground between late spring and early fall to avoid frost heave in new fill.
When you order by the ton, you pay for the material only and get a delivered price at checkout. Gravel Monkey ships crushed concrete to any address in Lincoln County.
The most-ordered product for base work is 3/4 inch crushed concrete because it compacts into a stable subgrade. The table below covers every size we stock and what each one is suited for.
| Product | Best used for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | general recycled base material | A blend of sizes for driveways and pads. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | fine top dressing and leveling | Works as a final wear layer over a compacted base. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | the standard compacting base size | Locks together well under traffic. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | heavy base under drives and pads | Used where extra load-bearing is needed. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | deep fill and mud control | Good for bridging soft spots and raising low areas. |
Pick a project from the table below to see the right size and a suggested depth. These are starting points; adjust for soil conditions on site.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction, depending on the lift height. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches; the large pieces stay in place under light loads. |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete (general) | 6 inches compacted, then top with 3/8" for a clean finish. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compacted in 6-inch lifts to avoid settling. |
| Parking pad | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 8 inches minimum; heavier size resists rutting from turning vehicles. |
Wellston gets about 38 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning matters. The ground around Wellston sits in a slow-draining soil group that sheds a fair amount of water across the surface. That means a deeper drainage layer under your crushed concrete earns its place, especially on flatter sites where water does not run off quickly.
About 80 days a year drop below freezing. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Snowfall averages about 5 inches a year, enough that plowing can loosen a loose surface if the base is not compacted well.
About 50 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground avoids ruts from the truck. The moderate frost depth here means the base layer should go below the frost line for any load-bearing structure, but that is a site-specific call.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. To estimate your tonnage, measure the length and width in feet and multiply by the depth in inches, then divide by about 15 to get tons for a typical compacted depth. Run your numbers through our material calculators to get a closer figure before you order.

Many buyers put in an order for another material on the same trip. Here are common combinations.
The best time is spring through early fall, after the ground has thawed and before it freezes again. About 80 days a year drop below freezing, so placing and compacting a base in winter is risky unless the site is prepared for it.
Yes, with about 38 inches of precipitation a year and slow-draining soils, washout can happen on a loose surface during heavy rain. A compacted base and an adequate drainage layer reduce that risk.
No, someone must be present during the delivery window to receive the load. If nobody is there, a missed delivery or redelivery fee can apply and the order is not refunded. You can nominate a person to be on site.
The sizes range from fine 3/8 inch to large 2 to 3 inch pieces. The smaller sizes compact into a smooth surface, while the larger sizes bridge soft ground and handle deep fill. The standard 3/4 inch size works for most base jobs.
