How Much Crushed Concrete You Need

Calculating the right amount of material depends on the area you are covering and how deep you want the layer. Use the calculator to estimate your tonnage based on length, width, and depth. Crushed concrete in Madison is sold and measured by the ton. A typical driveway base might need 5 to 15 tons depending on its size and the depth of compacted material required.

For a rough estimate, one ton of crushed concrete covers roughly 360 to 540 square feet at 2 inches deep, depending on compaction and material density. Thicker applications for high-traffic areas may require more material per square foot. If you are unsure about your requirements, our team can help you estimate during the order process. Every job is different, so discuss your specific needs with us before ordering. Overestimating is better than running short and delaying your project.

About Crushed Concrete

Crushed concrete is a recycled aggregate made from broken concrete slabs, curbs, and demolition waste. The material consists of cement paste and aggregate particles ranging from dust to roughly 1.5 inches in size. Its gray and white color reflects its composition as reclaimed Portland cement concrete.

The product is valued for its stability and compaction characteristics. When properly graded and compacted, crushed concrete creates a firm, well-draining base suitable for roads, parking areas, and building foundations. Its cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits make it attractive for residential and commercial applications.

Crushed concrete performs similarly to virgin stone aggregate in most base-layer applications, providing reliable support and drainage. Its reuse in local construction projects reduces transportation distances and supports regional sustainability goals.

Tandem trucks want a 12 ft lane in and out; tri-axles need 14 ft, and both want firm ground at the tipping spot so the load releases cleanly. Standard lead time on this lane is Mon-Sat, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.
