About Asphalt Millings
Asphalt millings are recycled asphalt pavement material, consisting of small black bituminous chunks. This reclaimed material comes from resurfaced roadways and parking lots, offering a cost-effective option for driveways, roads, and stabilization projects. Millings compress under traffic and weather, making them ideal for temporary or low-traffic surfaces. The material's dark color and composition make it effective for heat absorption in cold climates. Asphalt millings are sold by the ton and are available for prompt delivery throughout the El Monte area.

How is asphalt millings different from fresh asphalt?
Asphalt millings are recycled fragments from existing asphalt, while fresh asphalt is hot-mix material laid and compacted during paving. Millings cost less, can be recompacted under traffic, and are ideal for temporary surfaces or subsurfaces. Fresh asphalt must be placed by specialized paving contractors and offers a finished, durable top layer for high-traffic roads.
Can I use asphalt millings as a permanent driveway surface?
Yes, many homeowners use millings for permanent driveways, especially in climates with low traffic and moderate weather. The material compacts under vehicle weight and binds together in warm sun. Over time, annual raking and top-up with fresh millings keeps the surface smooth. El Monte's mild weather is well-suited to millings driveways, though they require more maintenance than poured concrete or new asphalt.
Will asphalt millings stain or track onto my property?
In hot weather, the bituminous coating can soften slightly; new millings may track dark residue onto shoes or vehicle tires. This effect diminishes as the material weathers and bonds. Laying millings in cooler months and allowing a few weeks for initial settling reduces tracking. Once weathered, millings behave like ordinary black stone and pose no ongoing staining risk to property.
What is the typical weight of asphalt millings?
Asphalt millings weigh approximately 2,400 pounds per cubic yard. One ton equals 2,000 pounds, so a single ton covers roughly 830 square feet at a 2-inch depth. Density can vary slightly based on moisture content and how tightly the material is compacted. Always use our calculator or contact us for exact tonnage, since even small variations in depth or area significantly affect the total needed.
How long does asphalt millings last?
Well-maintained asphalt millings can last 5 to 7 years as a driveway surface, depending on traffic, climate, and maintenance. Re-raking annually and adding a top layer of fresh millings every 2 to 3 years extends the life considerably. In El Monte's moderate climate, millings perform reliably without extreme freeze-thaw damage. Heavier traffic areas may require sooner replacement than light-use residential driveways.
Do I need heavy equipment to spread asphalt millings?
No special equipment is required for residential projects. Most homeowners spread millings using a gravel rake or shovel, then roll the surface with a hand roller or by driving over it repeatedly. For larger projects of 10 or more tons, contractors often use small dozers or graders to spread and compact efficiently. We recommend professional spreading for quantities over 15 tons or for steep slopes.
What is the delivery fee for small orders in El Monte?
Shipping charges depend on your order quantity. Orders of 3 to 8 tons include a delivery charge, with fees decreasing as order size increases. In El Monte, 15 tons or more gets you complimentary delivery included. Exact fees are calculated at quote time based on current rates and your specific ZIP code. Smaller orders may be combined with other deliveries to reduce your cost.
Can I order asphalt millings for a commercial or industrial project?
Yes, commercial and industrial clients regularly order bulk asphalt millings for parking lots, internal roads, and temporary surfaces. Bulk pricing applies to large orders, and we can schedule recurring deliveries for ongoing maintenance.
