This is a wild
ass guess, but I would estimate that 13 yards would cost you $35 per yard
delivered.

I paid about $65 a yard for 7 yards in CT. Saturday delivery would have b
een more.

My
suggestion: find a friend who knows the basics of concrete and who has
poured some before, and can help you form it out and pour it.

Agreed. This is too big a job for one man, but One with a little experience
and yourself it can be done.


Do not expect the guy on the truck to help either. I did one job where the
guy got right down with us and helped, but it was out of boredom for him,
not a requirement. He did get a rather nice tip though.

You also need a plan for the excess material. You bought it, you own it, it
will be delivered. Form out a small pad in back of the garage to hold the
trash cans. If you have extra, dump it there. No extra, you can buy a
couple of bags of Reddi-mix later.
