Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Christmas Valley address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed concrete is a recycled alternative to crushed stone. Both materials are angular and compact well, but crushed concrete costs less per ton. In Christmas Valley, where precipitation runs about 11 inches a year, you need to plan for drainage. A well-compacted crushed concrete base handles light rain without washing out.
The angular edges lock together to form a stable surface. Crushed concrete works best for driveways, parking areas, and base layers where appearance is not the top priority. It is a practical choice for budget-minded projects.
Different jobs call for different sizes. Here are the crushed concrete products available by the ton through Gravel Monkey in Christmas Valley.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose option for moderate loads |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works as a thin wearing surface on paths |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best for driveways and parking pads |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Handles bigger loads without shifting |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used for wet spots and thick subbase lifts |
The table below matches common projects to the right crushed concrete size and depth.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Drainable fill, compact in lifts |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 12 inches for firm path |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 inches on prepared subgrade |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | 6 inches, top with 3/8" for finish |
Christmas Valley gets about 11 inches of precipitation annually. That low rainfall reduces the risk of washout, but drainage still matters. The ground here freezes on about 201 days each year. Freeze-thaw cycles can shift a loose surface, which is why a deeper base layer is wise. Snowfall averages 22 inches a year. Plowing that snow can damage a loose top layer, so compact well and consider a thicker wear course.
Soils mapped in the Christmas Valley area are commonly well drained. That helps water move away from a base layer. The ground around Christmas Valley takes in water at a moderate rate. Standard base depth is usually enough to keep the crushed concrete stable. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
Lake County permitted about 20 single-family homes in 2024. That county figure points to steady but small new construction. Builders often use crushed concrete for temporary site roads and base pads on new lots.
Tonage depends on the area and depth. A 4-inch-deep layer over 100 square feet takes roughly 1.2 tons of crushed concrete. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to estimate your order. Enter the length, width, and depth, and the tool gives you tons.

Crushed concrete pairs well with other bulk materials for a complete project. Consider these options:
Not really. Christmas Valley sees only about 11 inches of precipitation a year. That low amount means washout is rarely a problem for well-compacted crushed concrete. Still, good drainage under the base helps in heavy downpours.
About 40 days out of the year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Those are the days when the ground may be soft. Schedule your delivery for a day when the site is firm enough for the truck.
You choose a delivery window at checkout: morning from 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon from 12 pm to 5 pm. Gravel Monkey sends an email confirmation right away, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of your load. The delivery goes ahead only after you approve that second email. You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the window.
