Recycled Materials 610 Stone

Recycled 610 stone is old concrete that's been crushed and screened down to a spread of sizes from about 1 inch to fines. You get chunks, chips, and stone dust all in one load. That mix is what lets it pack down tight when you run a compactor over it, and the angular pieces lock together instead of rolling around underfoot.

The 610 is a gradation number from state DOT base-course specs. It tells you the size range and says nothing about what kind of rock the pieces came from. Recycled 610 is made from old sidewalks, foundations, and torn-up roads that got crushed and rescreened to that same size range. It usually runs cheaper than virgin #610 limestone, and it does the same job under a driveway pad or slab.

How to choose within recycled materials 610 stone

Base under something else

Reclaimed concrete or asphalt millings work great as base under a driveway or slab. The layer above hides what's underneath.

When the top layer is visible

Recycled base compacts to grey or dusty tan, not the clean look of fresh crushed stone. Fine under a surface course, off if it's the finish.

Check the source

Reclaimed loads vary by demo site. A supplier who can tell you where the feedstock came from is a better bet than the cheapest yard in town.
