We started crushing leftover concrete for base material. It cut down on hauling costs and helped the project stay green.

Less truck noise for the neighbors too.

Always figured crushed concrete was just cheap filler. Then I watched a crew run leftover slabs through a portable crusher right where a parking lot was going in. They filled the low spots that same afternoon instead of waiting for a gravel truck. Changed my whole view on job site waste seeing it turn from a problem into the actual solution, saving both space and landfill trips.

How'd the crushed concrete hold up compared to gravel over time, @anna_walker?
