Concrete Prices in Vermont — Cost Guide + Calculator
Compare a published Vermont delivery-cost benchmark with the quote for your own mix and address. Then calculate cubic yards, bags and project cost without treating an undated statewide estimate as a current supplier price.
Quick answer
How much does concrete cost in Vermont?
ProMatcher's Vermont cost report lists $118.39–$132.55 per cubic yard (average $125.47) under concrete delivery for a 3,000 psi mix with 3/4-inch crushed stone. Its statewide page does not show a pricing date and warns that these are general estimates, not guaranteed quotes. This is not a verified 2026 supplier rate, and it must not be relabelled “material only.” The $190–$250 delivered range in an AI Overview could not be confirmed on the named suppliers' public sites.
Ask for a current written price for your address, mix and quantity. Confirm whether delivery, short-load, fuel, tax and pumping are included. An installed slab or patio quote also covers work beyond concrete volume, so compare those totals separately. The calculator below uses the price you enter; it does not silently substitute the ProMatcher estimate.
| Vermont benchmark | Published range | What it describes |
|---|---|---|
| 3,000 psi concrete delivery | $118.39–$132.55/yd³ | ProMatcher statewide estimate; not a current supplier quote |
| 4-inch reinforced slab on grade | $6.96–$7.75/sq ft | Foundation installation estimate, not a ready-mix rate |
| 4-inch reinforced patio | $5.78–$7.75/sq ft | Patio installation estimate |
| 4-inch reinforced walkway | $7.11–$7.94/sq ft | Walkway installation estimate |
| Simple stamping and coloring | $12.41–$13.60/sq ft | Decorative application estimate |
| Remove a 4-inch slab | $4.36–$6.51/sq ft | Demolition and removal estimate |
All table figures come from the same undated ProMatcher statewide report. The work scopes differ, so they cannot be added to a ready-mix quote without checking what each contractor includes. The AI Overview's driveway, retaining-wall and $6.75 bag figures lack an original Vermont listing with date and specification; they are omitted here.

Vermont Concrete Cost Calculator
Start with your measured dimensions. Enter a delivered price from a Vermont supplier when you have one; no state price is preloaded.
The concrete total appears after you enter a delivered price per cubic yard. Add only fees excluded from that rate; installation is optional. Tax, reinforcement and site work are not inferred.
Local quote worksheet
Compare Vermont concrete quotes on the same basis
For a quote to be comparable, give each supplier the same dimensions, thickness, required strength or engineer's specification, delivery address and proposed pour date. Ask whether the quoted amount covers material only or includes placing and finishing. A low per-yard figure can be misleading when delivery and small-order fees are omitted. Record each answer rather than combining different scopes into a single statewide “average.”
| Quote area | Ask for | Record separately |
|---|---|---|
| Burlington | Delivered price per cubic yard for your mix | Delivery, minimum order and fees |
| Rutland | The same mix and quantity | Availability and delivery terms |
| Montpelier or another area | Price for the exact job address | Installation as a separate quote |
These areas are prompts for obtaining quotes, not a claim that prices or suppliers are the same across Vermont. A city list is not a verified price map. When current local figures are supplied and checked, this draft can replace the worksheet with dated and sourced comparisons.
Vermont sourcing
Where to request a comparable local quote
S.D. Ireland offers ready-mix delivery and describes mixes from 2,500 to 5,000 psi. Carroll Concrete also supplies ready-mix in Vermont; its location list includes Berlin, Vernon, Coventry, Guildhall and St. Johnsbury. Neither reviewed supplier page publishes a Vermont per-yard price, so request the same mix, volume, delivery address and proposed pour date from each supplier that serves your location.
For a cold-season pour, ask the contractor how fresh concrete will be protected. The Vermont Agency of Transportation's construction specifications define cold-weather conditions for its projects and require a protection plan. Those highway specifications are not a blanket residential building-code rule, but they show why weather and curing can affect the scope of a Vermont quote.
Methodology
How the Vermont calculator works
For a rectangular slab, the calculator multiplies length by width by thickness in feet, divides cubic feet by 27 to convert to cubic yards, and applies the allowance you selected. It does not round the order to a truck size or assume that every project needs the same allowance. Check the actual amount with your supplier or contractor before ordering. An irregular slab, footing or stepped grade needs separate measurements for each section; add the volumes instead of pretending the whole project is one rectangle.
Ready-mixed concrete is sold by volume in cubic yards or cubic meters, according to the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association's yield guidance. The bag figure uses the approximately 0.60 cubic-foot yield stated in the Quikrete 80 lb Concrete Mix technical sheet; verify yield for the exact bagged product you buy. Bag count is a quantity comparison, not a claim that bags cost less than delivered concrete.
The material estimate multiplies your entered price per cubic yard by the calculated volume. Fixed fees are added once. If you also enter an installation quote per square foot, the tool multiplies it by the project area and adds it to the displayed total. These inputs may overlap with a contractor's all-in bid, so do not enter an all-in installed rate together with material and delivery unless the scope genuinely excludes them.
Questions
Vermont concrete price questions
What is the price of ready-mix concrete per yard in Vermont?
ProMatcher reports a general $118.39–$132.55/yd³ concrete-delivery estimate for a specified 3,000 psi mix, but it does not show a date or guarantee a current quote. Ask a supplier for the delivered rate to your address and enter that actual rate above. Check whether extra fees and taxes are included.
How much concrete does a 20 × 20 ft slab need?
At 4 inches thick, the geometric volume is about 4.94 cubic yards before any allowance. Change the dimensions or thickness above to match your project. The final order should reflect the actual formwork and supplier guidance, not a generic slab example.
Do bagged and ready-mix prices mean the same thing?
No. Ready-mix is normally quoted per cubic yard delivered; bagged mix is sold by bag with a product-specific yield. Compare the same volume and include handling, equipment and delivery before deciding which option fits the job.
