How volumetric works

The batch plant comes to you.

A drum mixer is loaded at the plant and the clock starts. A volumetric truck carries raw materials and mixes at your site — fresh, exact, on your schedule.

  1. 01 / LOAD

    Raw materials on board

    Sand, stone, cement and water ride in separate bins. Nothing starts curing on the highway.

  2. 02 / MIX

    Batched at your site

    Mixed to spec on arrival. Need a footing mix and a slab mix? Same truck, same trip.

  3. 03 / POUR

    Stop when the forms are full

    No leftover drum to pay for, no short-load fee. You pay for the cubic metres you pour.

Local Concrete volumetric truck 003 with LOCALCONCRETE.CA decal
How much concrete do I need for a 20 × 20 ft slab?
At 4 inches thick, a 20 × 20 ft slab is 133 ft³ — about 4.94 yd³ or 3.78 m³. Add 5% for waste and order about 3.97 m³. Use the calculator for other sizes.
What is volumetric concrete?
A volumetric truck carries sand, stone, cement and water in separate bins and mixes concrete at your site. The mix is fresh, the volume is exact, and you pay for what you pour — not a full drum.
Is there a short-load fee?
Drum-mixer suppliers typically charge a short-load fee on partial trucks. Our volumetric trucks batch on site, so a partial load is just a smaller pour. For very small pours under 1 m³, call us and we'll advise.
Which mixes can you supply?
Anything from 0.7 MPa U-fill to high-strength 50 MPa, plus custom mixes. A volumetric truck can supply more than one mix in a single trip.
How long can the truck wait on site?
15 minutes per m³ ordered, up to 90 minutes, is included. After that, standby is $180/hour.
What's your cancellation policy?
Free with more than 24 hours' notice. $250 within 24 hours. $600 once the truck has been dispatched.
Do you deliver past the curb?
Delivery is curb-side. Delivery past the curb requires a signed damage waiver.
How do I pay?
Credit card (3% processing fee), e-transfer or cash, due at delivery unless you're on account. 13% HST applies.
