Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Ashland address and unloads right where you point.
Jackson County permitted about 631 single-family homes in 2024, many of which need driveways and parking pads. Crushed concrete offers a cost-effective base material for these projects.
Ashland gets about 23 inches of precipitation a year. That means drainage and washout planning are important when laying a crushed concrete base.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes. Each size serves a different purpose in construction and landscaping.
| Size | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Compactable fill for many applications |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works well as a surface layer for paths |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Standard compacting base size | Ideal under drives and parking areas |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Provides stability on soft ground |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used for temporary access roads |
Crushed concrete is versatile. Here are some typical projects and the size to use.
| Project | Recommended size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compacted to stable base |
| Grade raising under a slab | Crushed Concrete | Fill and compact in lifts |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Provides traction on soft ground |
| Backfill behind a wall | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Allows drainage and compaction |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Cost-effective, durable base |
Ashland sees about 115 days a year when temperatures drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can loosen an un-compacted base, so proper compaction and drainage are essential to prevent shifting.
The ground around Ashland is in hydrologic group D, meaning it takes water in very slowly. Most rain runs across the surface, so a deeper base layer and good drainage matter more here than elsewhere. Soils mapped in the Ashland area are commonly somewhat poorly drained, reinforcing the need for careful base preparation.
Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. Plan your delivery on a firm, dry day to get the best compaction.
