Road Base
Road base is crushed stone blended with fines that compacts into a load-bearing pad — the layer that goes under a driveway or slab, not the surface you see.
See delivered price →Crushed Concrete
Crushed concrete is old slab and pavement run back through a crusher — angular and load-bearing like fresh crushed stone, cheaper because the feedstock is reclaimed.
