Bad thing about the mixer truck is that you need to order around 4
yards or more , or the delivery fees will ammount to about the same .



Sometimes it is worth the extra not to have to do the hauling and
mixing. It is tough work. Some od the bigger cities have places that
will deliver as little as a half yard by grouping drops in an area of
the city.


There is (or was) a place in Memphis that loaded concrete into little
trailers (designed for hauling concrete) for small batch projects . Other
places may have something similar for 1-2 yard projects .
