Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Rice Lake address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed concrete is recycled demolition material, crushed to a consistent angular shape. You buy it by the ton, order online, and a dump truck delivers it to your Rice Lake address.
Rice Lake gets about 34 inches of precipitation a year. That means washout is a real concern for loose surfaces, so a well-compacted base with the right crushed concrete size matters from the start.
Crushed concrete works for many jobs, but no single size fits every application. The table below matches each product to its best use.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Good all-rounder, but larger sizes offer better stability under heavy loads. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Not for heavy vehicle traffic; packs tight but can rut under weight. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best balance of drainage and load support for most residential jobs. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger than standard; used where extra bearing capacity is needed. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Too coarse for a finished surface; only for sub-base or wet spots. |
Here is how the right crushed concrete size fits common projects. Use the calculator to confirm depth and tonnage for your specific site.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill behind a wall | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Free-draining fill, compacted in lifts, depth as needed. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compacted base, standard thickness for light vehicles, use calculator. |
| Temporary site access | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Thicker layer to spread load on soft ground, use calculator. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Strong sub-base, compacted to meet slab specs, use calculator. |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Cost-effective compacting base, depth depends on traffic, use calculator. |
Around Rice Lake, about 173 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That deep freeze cycle makes an unstable base heave and settle. You need enough compacted crushed concrete to hold against frost movement.
Snowfall averages about 52 inches a year, and about 66 days bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Wet days and plowing can damage a loose surface, so schedule your delivery onto firm ground and plan for drainage.
With 34 inches of precipitation annually, the ground around Rice Lake soaks water up quickly. Hydrologic group A soils produce little runoff. That means you need less drainage stone under the surface, but washout of the top layer is still a risk if it is not well compacted. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts.
Your total tonnage depends on the area and the compacted depth you need. Enter your dimensions into our material calculators to get a tonnage estimate before you order.
