Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Port Lavaca address and unloads right where you point.
Port Lavaca sits in Calhoun County, where crushed concrete is a common base for driveways, parking pads, and temporary access roads. The area gets about 42 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you place a loose surface.
Whether you are building a new slab, raising a grade, or filling a low spot, recycled crushed concrete gives you a compactable aggregate at a practical cost per ton.
Crushed concrete is sold in five sizes. Pick the one that matches the depth and compaction you need for your project.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose blend for most base work |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works for a finished surface under pathways |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Most common for driveways and slabs |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Handles heavy loads with good drainage |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used for soft spots and wet-area base |
Match the job to the right size to avoid over-ordering or under-specifying depth.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches for stable fill |
| Backfill behind a wall | Crushed Concrete | 3 to 4 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 5 inches, well compacted |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 12 inches over soft ground |
Only about 5 days a year drop below freezing in Port Lavaca. That small number of freeze-thaw cycles means less ground movement, but an unstable base can still heave under a slab.
Snowfall is roughly 0 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern. The soils mapped in the Port Lavaca area are commonly moderately well drained, which tells you that more or less base stone may be needed under the surface layer depending on your exact spot.
The ground around Port Lavaca is in hydrologic group D, meaning it takes water in very slowly. Most rain runs across the surface instead of soaking in, so drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point.
The tonnage you order depends on the project area and the depth you choose. Use our material calculators to convert your measurements into tons. Enter the dimensions and let the tool do the math for you.

Crushed concrete works as a base, but you may need a surface layer or a different fill material for the same project.
Any time the ground is firm and rain is not forecast. The ground around Port Lavaca is in hydrologic group D, so it takes water in very slowly; after heavy rain, the surface may be too soft for a truck. Plan a dry stretch of at least a couple days before delivery.
We deliver loads as small as 1 ton. Because Port Lavaca sees about 54 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain, schedule your small load during a dry period so the truck can reach the drop point on firm ground.
Choose 3/4" crushed concrete for most driveways and slab bases. Use 1"-1 1/2" for heavy base under drives and pads, and 2"-3" for deep fill or mud control. Fine 3/8" works for leveling and top dressing.
