Buy Crushed Concrete in Abingdon, Virginia

A driveway or parking pad in Abingdon can take a surprising amount of crushed concrete. Buying by the ton means you need to pick the right size for the job and figure out the volume. The table below lists the options you can order.

Abingdon gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning matters when you put down a crushed concrete base. The right depth and size help water move through the surface.

Choosing Crushed Concrete for Common Projects in Abingdon

Each project calls for a specific crushed concrete size and depth.

Crushed Concrete and Abingdon's Climate

Abingdon averages about 47 inches of rain each year, which means drainage is a factor when you install a crushed concrete surface. The area also sees about 93 days with at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground can save you from working in mud.

Freezing temperatures occur on roughly 121 days a year. That limits the work window for compacting a base and can cause the ground to shift if the material is not well settled. Winter snowfall averages about 12 inches, and plowing a loose crushed concrete surface can push the material around if it has not been compacted.

Soils mapped in the Abingdon area are commonly well drained, so the base layer underneath the crushed concrete does not usually need to be unusually deep. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
