Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Sonora address and unloads right where you point.
Many buyers choose crushed concrete for the price but pick the wrong particle size. The right size locks the surface in place; the wrong one shifts under load. Match the gravel to the project, not the other way around.
Sonora gets about 22 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter. A well-graded crushed concrete base handles that water without settling.
Crushed concrete splits into two categories: base material for structural layers and finer material for a finished top. The table below lists the grades you can order in Sonora.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Good for drives and pads when compacted in lifts. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Lays flat and can be raked smooth for paths. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Most common for driveways because it locks tight. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Handles truck loads without pumping up fines. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Works in wet spots where smaller stone would sink. |
Crushed concrete is a budget-friendly base compared to virgin stone, but permanent surfaces often need a different top layer. The table below matches common projects to the right size and notes what to expect.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compacted to required thickness |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | Compacted in lifts to support pavement |
| Backfill behind a wall | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Drains well and settles little |
| Grade raising under a slab | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Stable fill that supports load |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Handles mud and heavy equipment |
The ground around Sonora is in hydrologic group C, meaning it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under any crushed concrete pad.
Sonora sees about 22 inches of precipitation a year, and roughly 35 days bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground becomes important when the soil is already saturated.
About 67 days a year drop below 32F, but ground freezing here is not a significant factor. That reduces how deep the base layer needs to be compared to colder regions. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is.
Most projects need crushed concrete measured in cubic yards before you can convert to tons by material density. You can use our material calculators to enter the length, width and depth of the area and get the tonnage for each grade.

Crushed concrete works as a base, but the surface layer often needs a different material. Pair it with one of these:
Not significantly. About 67 days a year drop below 32F, but ground freezing is not a factor here. The main concern is wet ground from earlier rain, not cold. Delivery windows are still available as long as the site is accessible.
Yes, because the soil around Sonora takes water in slowly and sheds runoff across the surface. With about 22 inches of precipitation a year, a well-drained crushed concrete layer resists washout better than loose fill. Proper base depth handles the runoff.
