Our trucks are 9 yard mixers and we can deliver any amount up to that in a single trip. The smallest order we take is 1 yard, which is 81 square feet of flat work at 4 inches deep. If you need more than one truck, we can accommodate that most of the time. 

Very little. Because we mix as we go, there’s very little mess and almost no waste. We simply need to hose off the chutes and auger at the end. We can easily do this in a wheelbarrow or washout bag. We absolutely cannot washout into a storm drain.

We do not provide a wheelbarrow. We do not carry one with us. Washout bags are available for $35, and are yours to keep after we clean up.

Yes. Well, the driver operates a machine that mixes it right there. We don’t show up and start mixing it all by hand. And, yes, people really do ask this!

It’s quick. All our trucks are from the same manufacturer, but we have different configurations. All go from separate ingredients to concrete in about 6 seconds. The overall rate is 1 yard every 1-2 minutes, depending on which truck we’re using.

It depends. Pushing wheelbarrows to the back yard takes longer than direct pouring out of the truck. We allow 15 minutes per yard, with a 1 hour minimum to off load. After that, truck time charges may apply. We’re not trying to punish anybody with this. There is another crew somewhere, waiting for that truck. We need everyone to be properly prepared and ready to pour when the truck shows up. 

No. We are a material supplier. We do not dig, form, place or finish. We recommend hiring a professional contractor to do all that work. Pouring a concrete slab can be a satisfying DIY project, but it is labor intensive and finishing the slab is a skilled process.

During operation, there are pneumatic vibrators that shake the bins. It keeps the aggregate and cement feeding steadily. These vibrators make a distinct sound. They go off at regular intervals while mixing and we count the hits to keep track of how much is going on the ground or in your wheelbarrow.

Absolutely! The National Ready Mixed Concrete Association "NRMCA" and its various departments: The Concrete Plant Manufacturers Bureau "CPMB". Truck Mixer Manufactures Bureau "TMMB"  and Volumetric Mixer Manufacturers Bureau "VMMB" set standards for accuracy and consistency of material produced and delivered. Standard specifications are also laid out by "ASTM"  to. All our trucks are independently certified to be in compliance with these codes at manufacture.

If you only need a very small amount, like a mailbox or a couple fence posts, bags can be a better option. It takes 42, 80 pound bags or 56, 60 pound bags to make 1 cubic yard. You will have to load them onto the cart at the store, then into your truck and finally off-load at your site; all before you start mixing. You can save a little money on the cost of the bags, but the time, labor and mess of mixing it by hand usually costs much more.

Upon completion of the pour, we will washout on site. You need to think about this beforehand. It does not need much, but needs to be done. You will be charged based on how much material we make. You can pay the driver with cash, check, Visa or Mastercard. Remember, we accept cash, but our drivers do not carry cash to make change. They are very busy guys, so don’t ask them to wait while you “run to the store.” Please have appropriate small bills if you intend to pay with cash.
