Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Orange address and unloads right where you point.
Orange sits in the southeast corner of Texas where the Sabine River meets the Gulf coastal plain. Properties here range from older homes with deep driveways to new developments graded out of the flatwoods, and nearly every job starts with a base layer that can handle the wet.
Orange gets about 63 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout planning matter more here than in many other markets. Crushed concrete gives you an angular, compacting base that sheds water instead of holding it.
Crushed concrete is recycled demolition material that has been crushed and screened into angular pieces. It compacts well and costs less than virgin stone. The five sizes below cover everything from a thin top dressing to deep mud fill.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A blended run that works for most sub-base jobs |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Small enough to rake smooth for walkways and pads |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | The go-to spec for driveways and parking areas |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger stone locks together under weight |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | For soft spots where you need to bridge to firm ground |
Choosing the right product starts with the problem. Soft ground, a low pad, or a muddy access lane each call for a different size and depth. The table below matches a few typical jobs to the right crushed concrete.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted in lifts |
| Parking pad | Crushed Concrete | 6 inches minimum, compacted |
| Driveway base on a budget | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches for heavy traffic |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 12 inches over soft ground |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Drains without settling |
About 71 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters. The soil around Orange takes water in very slowly, which means most rain runs across the surface rather than soaking in. That makes drainage and a deeper base more important here than in places with sandy soil.
Only about 9 days a year drop below 32F, and ground freezing is not a significant factor. The work window is long because the ground rarely freezes deep enough to heave a properly compacted base. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
When the freeze cycle does arrive, it matters most for an unstable base that has not been compacted. A crushed concrete layer that is well locked and graded will sit through those few cold days without shifting.
Tonnage depends on the area you are covering, the depth you plan to place, and whether you are compacting in lifts. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to get a tonnage estimate before you order. That way you buy what the job needs and not an extra trip.

Crushed concrete is a recycled base material, but your job may need a cap layer, a fill component or a different aggregate. These materials work alongside it or replace it depending on the project.
The minimum load is 1 ton. Orange County permitted about 169 single-family homes in 2024, and many of those sites needed a clean base layer. A single ton covers a small area at a few inches of depth and works for patch jobs or walkways.
