recycled baserock near me

Graniterock San Jose Recycling produces high-quality recycled baserock and aggregates that meet or exceed Caltrans specifications while saving you money and landfill space. We manufacture ¾" Caltrans Class 2 Baserock, ¾" Class 4 Baserock, ¾" Drain Rock, 1 ½" Drain Rock, 110 Utility Sand, and Recycled Sand right here in South Bay. Each product is screened, crushed, and weatherized to perform like virgin materials — with a fraction of the environmental impact.

Our baserock is ideal for road subgrades, parking lot foundations, trench backfill, and under slab applications. Drain rock handles french drains, septic systems, and landscape drainage with ease. Utility sand works for bedding pipes, mixing mortar, or leveling pavers. Because we recycle concrete and asphalt from local demolition projects, you get consistent gradation and a lower carbon footprint. Contractors choose us for just-in-time pickup or bulk delivery — our scalehouse is open Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 3:30 pm, with after‑hour dump arrangements available upon request.

Why Graniterock? We have been serving the Bay Area for over a century, and our San Jose recycling facility is specifically permitted by local Air Boards to ensure safe, responsible operation. Every load is backed by our commitment to quality, from the crusher to your job site. If you need a custom gradation, ask about our portable crushing services — we can recycle your concrete or asphalt on‑site or at our plant to produce exactly what your engineering specs require. For sustainable, affordable aggregate in South Bay, Graniterock is the name to trust.

Graniterock San Jose Recycling accepts clean concrete and asphaltic concrete (asphalt) dumps from contractors, municipalities, and homeowners throughout South Bay. Instead of paying high landfill fees, bring your broken slabs, driveways, sidewalks, or parking lot tear‑outs to our 100 Granite Rock Way facility. We process those materials into recycled baserock, drain rock, and engineered fill — closing the loop on construction waste.

Our scalehouse is open Monday–Friday 7:00 am to 3:30 pm for standard dumping. Need to drop material after hours? We can make arrangements — just call 408.574.3000 to schedule a late or early drop. All loads are weighed, and we provide receipts for your records. The material must be free of rebar (or with rebar within our guidelines), trash, wood, or dirt. Asphalt should be free of large tar patches or fuel‑contaminated sections.

Once dumped, your concrete and asphalt are fed into our crushers and screens to produce Caltrans‑spec products. These recycled aggregates perform identically to virgin stone in most structural and civil applications — from compacted road base to drain fields. By choosing Graniterock recycling, you keep thousands of tons of waste out of landfills annually, reduce the need for mining, and lower your project's embodied carbon. We even offer portable crushing, so if you have a large stockpile on your job site, we can bring the crusher to you. Dump with confidence at South Bay's most trusted recycling center.

Need a specific gradation of recycled concrete, asphalt, or native rock for a large‑scale civil project? Graniterock San Jose Recycling brings the crusher to your job site. Our portable crushing division serves South Bay and surrounding counties, allowing you to recycle demolition materials on location — eliminating hauling costs and landfill tipping fees. We crush concrete and asphalt to produce engineered fill, drainage rock, baserock, or any specified gradation you require.

The process is simple: you stockpile your clean concrete or asphalt rubble. Our team mobilizes a portable crusher and screener to your site, processes the material to your desired size (e.g., 3/4" minus, 2" minus, or 1 ½" clean rock), and stockpiles the finished product for reuse in your project. You save on trucking, purchase of virgin aggregate, and landfill disposal — all while earning LEED points for recycling. We also crush native rock for site development, turning excavated stone into usable road base or backfill.

Graniterock's portable crushing team is fully permitted, insured, and experienced with Caltrans and municipal specifications. We handle everything from small site developments to multi‑acre subdivisions. Tell us your tonnage and gradation requirements, and we will provide a custom crushing plan. For construction managers and general contractors in South Bay, portable crushing is the most cost‑effective and sustainable way to manage concrete and asphalt waste.

Drainage and bedding are critical to any construction or landscape project. Graniterock San Jose Recycling produces recycled drain rock and utility sand that match the performance of virgin materials at a lower cost. Our ¾" and 1 ½" Drain Rock is clean, well‑graded, and ideal for french drains, septic leach fields, retaining wall backfill, and landscape drainage swales. Recycled Sand (110 Utility Sand) works perfectly for pipe bedding, concrete mixing, paver leveling, and sandblasting.

All our recycled sand and drain rock are processed from crushed concrete and asphalt, then screened to ensure consistent particle size and minimal fines. The result is a free‑draining, compactable material that performs year after year. Landscapers use our drain rock to prevent water pooling around foundations and to create dry creek beds. Contractors specify our utility sand for underground utility bedding because it meets compaction and flowability standards.

Available for pickup at our San Jose scalehouse or for delivery throughout South Bay. We serve residential homeowners, landscape crews, and large civil contractors alike. Every load is weatherized and backed by Graniterock's reputation for quality since 1900. For drainage and bedding that saves money and the environment, choose recycled drain rock and sand from your local recycling center.
