Concrete pouring

Post by HoboJo »

Anyone here knows roughly the price per yard for a pumper truck to fill a foundation with concrete?

Pumper truck is about $250 per hour, with a minimum one hour charge.
Concrete is approx $180 yard

All, approx pricing

Thanks for the prompt reply. I had 230$ in my head but had forgotten about the delivery ;-)

Thanks again!

Say, how many yards does a pumper truck bring?

Pumper trucks don't bring concrete. That's what mixers do. Pumps pump mixers mix and transport concrete.

Might want to better explain what you are doing and what you are looking for here. It's pretty obvious you don't know the correct terminology, and you likely don't know that a foundation (footers, stem walls, slab) isn't poured all at once. Typically done in 3 pours but complex jobs could require more.

# of pours, etc will certainly effect your costing. Also - concrete isn't just 1 mix. There are different types/mixes depending on needs and requirements. $180/yard would be your basic everyday mix. Would cost more if you want to go with a higher grade mix. Delivery charges, mileage charges if out of town, etc would all apply.
