Over-ordering concrete might seem like a safe bet, but it often leads to wasted material, unnecessary costs, and disposal headaches. If you’re planning a project in North Haven, there’s a better way to get exactly what you need: short load concrete delivery from A-Plus Concrete.
Whether you’re pouring a patio, walkway, driveway repair, or shed foundation, our short load service is designed to give you just the right amount—no more, no less. Here’s how you can avoid concrete waste and save money.
The Real Cost of Over-Ordering
Ordering too much concrete isn’t just inconvenient—it’s expensive and wasteful.
💰 Wasted Money
Concrete is sold by the cubic yard. Even a half-yard of excess adds up quickly in material costs, especially if you’re doing multiple small pours.
🛻 Disposal Problems
Extra concrete hardens fast. Once it sets, you’ll need special equipment or services to remove it—more time, more money.
🌱 Environmental Impact
Concrete waste contributes to landfill buildup. Ordering the right amount helps reduce your environmental footprint.
Tips for Accurate Measurement
✅ Use the Right Formula
Measure length × width × depth (in feet) to get the volume in cubic feet. Then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards.
✅ Always Round Up Slightly
Add a 5–10% buffer to account for irregular surfaces, spillage, or depth variations.
✅ Double-Check Everything
Take time to verify your measurements. It’s better to spend 5 extra minutes calculating than to deal with 5 extra wheelbarrows of leftover concrete.
