What sets us apart from redi-mix:

Volumetric concrete trucks are vehicles equipped with a mixer drum and batching equipment that allow them to mix concrete on-site as needed. This offers several advantages over traditional ready-mix concrete delivery:

  • Customization: Volumetric trucks can adjust the mix design on the fly, allowing for precise control over the concrete's composition. This is particularly useful for projects with specific requirements for strength, durability, or other properties.

  • Freshness: Since the concrete is mixed on-site, it's delivered fresh, minimizing the risk of premature setting and ensuring optimal workability.

  • Flexibility: Volumetric trucks can produce different batch sizes to suit the needs of each pour. This flexibility is especially valuable for smaller projects or those with irregular concrete requirements.

  • Reduced Waste: With volumetric mixing, contractors can produce only the amount of concrete needed, reducing waste compared to traditional delivery methods where unused concrete must be disposed of.

  • Cost Efficiency: By eliminating the need to estimate and order pre-mixed concrete quantities, volumetric trucks can help control costs by ensuring contractors pay only for the concrete they use.

Volumetric trucks are particularly popular for projects like small residential pours, repair work, or projects with tight deadlines where fresh concrete is essential. However, they may not be suitable for large-scale projects where a continuous, high-volume supply of concrete is required.

Small Yardage Concrete Delivery

"Small-Yardage" typically refer to orders that are smaller than the standard truckload quantity. These are often requested for smaller projects or where access might be restricted. Missoula Concrete offers short load options to accommodate your needs. These smaller loads can be advantageous for projects that don't require large volumes of concrete, reducing waste and cost. If you need specific information about our short load offerings, it's best to reach out to us directly.
