CRUSHED CONCRETE DELIVERY IN FLORIDA

Recycled Concrete Aggregate Delivery Across Florida

TransPhos delivers bulk recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) to construction sites throughout Charlotte, Citrus, DeSoto, Hardee, Hernando, Highlands, Hillsborough, Lake, Lee, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Sarasota, and Sumter Counties. A stable, economical, and environmentally friendly choice for driveways, parking areas, road base, and subbase applications — delivered on time and within budget.

What Is Recycled Concrete Aggregate?

Recycled concrete aggregate — commonly referred to as RCA or crushed concrete — is produced by processing demolished concrete structures such as old roadways, parking lots, foundations, and buildings. Rather than sending this material to a landfill, it is crushed and graded into usable aggregate sizes that perform exceptionally well as a base and subbase material.

RCA is one of the most practical and sustainable aggregate options available for construction projects in Florida. It compacts firmly, drains well, and delivers the load-bearing stability that driveways, parking pads, and road base applications demand — all at a lower cost than virgin aggregate materials.

Why Contractors Choose RCA

  • Excellent compaction — Crushed concrete binds together under load, creating a firm and stable surface that holds its grade over time
  • Strong drainage — The angular particle shape and open gradation allow water to drain through effectively, outperforming fines-only materials
  • Cost-effective — RCA is typically more economical than virgin aggregate, making it a smart choice for budget-conscious projects without sacrificing performance
  • Sustainable — Using recycled material diverts demolition waste from landfills and reduces the demand for newly quarried aggregate
  • Versatile sizing — Available in multiple sizes suited to different applications, from fine base material to coarser subbase and construction entrance aggregate

Recycled concrete aggregate delivers real performance at a lower cost and a smaller environmental footprint. It’s a win for your project and for Florida.

Available Sizes

TransPhos carries recycled concrete aggregate in the sizes most commonly required for base, subbase, and surface applications. Different project types call for different gradations — our team can help you select the right size for your specific needs.

3/4″ Minus (Base Material)

The most widely used RCA size for base and subbase applications. The minus gradation includes fines that help the material bind and compact tightly, creating a dense, stable layer ideal for driveways, parking lots, and road base work. This is the go-to choice when a firm, well-compacted surface is the priority.

1½″ RCA

A coarser gradation suited to heavier subbase applications and construction entrances where larger aggregate is needed to support equipment traffic and provide stability in softer ground conditions.

2″ RCA

The largest standard size we carry, used for deep subbase layers, construction entrances, and situations where maximum drainage and void fill are needed beneath finer base materials.

1″ × 3″ (When Available)

A washed, open-graded size used where drainage is the primary concern. When available, this gradation is a good fit for drainage applications, French drains, and situations where minimal fines content is required. Contact us to check current availability.

Common Uses for Recycled Concrete Aggregate

RCA performs well across a broad range of construction and site improvement applications. Here are the most common uses our customers throughout Florida rely on us for:

Driveways

RCA is one of the most popular driveway base and surface materials in Florida. The 3/4″ minus gradation compacts firmly and holds up well under regular vehicle traffic. It provides a stable, well-draining surface that is significantly more economical than asphalt or concrete while still delivering durable, long-term performance.

Parking Pads and Parking Areas

For commercial and residential parking areas, RCA provides the compacted base needed to support vehicles without rutting or shifting. It is a cost-effective alternative to asphalt base for temporary or permanent parking pads and is commonly used on job sites, agricultural properties, and commercial facilities.

Construction Entrances

A properly constructed entrance using RCA keeps mud and debris off public roads, protects site access from deteriorating in wet conditions, and provides stable footing for heavy equipment and delivery vehicles throughout the duration of a project.

Road Base

RCA performs comparably to virgin aggregate for road base applications, compacting to a firm, load-bearing layer beneath asphalt or concrete pavement. It is widely used for private road construction, subdivision roads, and access roads where cost efficiency is important.

Subbase Underlayment

As a subbase layer beneath pavers, concrete slabs, asphalt, or other finished surfaces, RCA provides the stable, well-draining intermediate layer that prevents settling and distributes surface loads into the ground below.

Underlayment for Pavers

RCA is an excellent base material for paver installations. Its compaction characteristics and drainage properties create the firm, level foundation that paver systems require for long-term performance and appearance.

Delivery Information

TransPhos delivers recycled concrete aggregate by end dump or trailer dump, depending on your site requirements and order size. Our drivers are experienced working with construction sites and can accommodate a range of access and offloading conditions.

End Dump and Trailer Dump Delivery

We deliver by end dump truck for standard site access, and trailer dump for larger loads or sites where a longer spread of material is needed. Tell us about your site when you request a quote and we’ll make sure the right equipment shows up.

Loader-Assisted Offloads

For sites that require it, we can assist with loader-supported offloading to help position material where it needs to go. Let us know your site layout and access conditions when you reach out so we can plan accordingly.

A Note on RCA Composition

As a recycled material, RCA may contain small rebar or wire mesh fragments that are typical of crushed concrete. We run magnets over our material to remove the majority of metal content before delivery. This is standard industry practice for RCA and does not affect the material’s performance as a base or subbase aggregate.

Recycled Concrete Aggregate Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes of RCA do you carry?

We carry recycled concrete aggregate in 3/4″ minus (base), 1½″, and 2″ sizes, plus 1″ × 3″ when available. Contact us to confirm current stock and discuss which size is right for your project.

Is recycled concrete aggregate as strong as virgin aggregate?

For most base and subbase applications — driveways, parking lots, road base, and construction entrances — RCA performs comparably to virgin aggregate. It compacts well, drains effectively, and provides stable, long-lasting support under traffic and structural loads.

Does RCA contain metal fragments?

Recycled concrete aggregate may contain small rebar or wire mesh fragments that are a natural byproduct of crushing concrete structures. We run magnets over our material to remove the majority of metal content prior to delivery. This is standard industry practice for RCA and does not affect its performance as a construction aggregate.

Can RCA be used as a driveway surface?

Yes. The 3/4″ minus gradation is one of the most popular driveway surface and base materials in Florida. It compacts firmly, drains well, and holds up under regular vehicle traffic at a cost well below asphalt or concrete. Many property owners use it as a permanent driveway surface.

How does RCA compare to limerock for road base?

Both RCA and limerock are widely used for road base in Florida and perform well in compaction and load-bearing applications. RCA is generally more economical and is a good fit for private roads, driveways, and site access work. Limerock is the DOT-specification standard for permitted public roadway applications. Our team can help you choose the right material for your project’s requirements.

How much RCA do I need for my project?

The quantity depends on the area to be covered and the required depth. Our team is glad to help you estimate the right amount — reach out with your project dimensions and we’ll walk you through the calculation at no charge.
