How the index is built

Envelope of per-ZIP delivered quotes for the anchor mix (3000 PSI) across each county; statewide reference where no operator or prospect is in radius; ranges rounded to $5. Metered, delivery included, 1 yd³ minimum, no short-load fee.

Every ZIP code in Florida gets a reference quote for the anchor mix; a county row is the lowest and highest of its ZIP quotes. Where operators we are onboarding cover part of a county, their pre-contract price sheets narrow the range and the row says so. Where an operator is live, the row switches to an exact "from" price — the same number shown on the bookable city pages and in our product feed, so the index can never disagree with a quote.

For context, ConcreteNetwork puts the US average ready-mix price at $179.95 per cubic yard for 2025 (range $160–$195; source Concrete Financial Insights, page updated July 2026). Ready-mix plants price full trucks and add a short-load fee below their minimum; metered small-load trucks bill only the yards poured, which is why the index tracks an all-in delivered figure with no fee line.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a yard of concrete cost delivered in Florida?

For small metered loads (1–4 cubic yards) the typical delivered price across Florida is $150–$220 per cubic yard as of September 2026, all-in — mixing, delivery and no short-load fee. Full-truck ready-mix (8–10 yd³) is priced differently and usually adds a short-load fee below the plant minimum.

Why does the index show a range instead of one price?

Because a range is what we can stand behind before a local operator is live. Exact per-ZIP prices appear only where a vetted operator is bookable; everywhere else the county row shows the envelope of our per-ZIP reference quotes, rounded to $5.

What do "statewide reference" and "local prospect quotes" mean?

Statewide reference means no operator or prospect operator is within delivery radius of that county yet, so the row shows the Florida-wide range. Local prospect quotes means one or more operators we are onboarding cover ZIPs in the county, and their pre-contract price sheets narrow the range. Live operator pricing means at least one ZIP is bookable at an exact price.

Does the price include delivery?

Yes. Every figure is a delivered, all-in price per cubic yard: on-site metered mixing, delivery within the operator radius, and billing only for the yards actually poured, to the quarter yard.

How often is the index updated?

It is regenerated from our pricing database on every site build, at least weekly. The date on this page and in the CSV (2026-09-04) is the data date.

How does Florida compare with the national average?

ConcreteNetwork reports a US average ready-mix price of $179.95 per cubic yard for 2025 (range $160–$195, source Concrete Financial Insights, page updated July 2026). Small-load pricing sits above the ready-mix average because the truck rolls for 1–4 yards, but without the short-load fee that full-truck plants add for the same order.
