When you place a ready mix concrete order, there is a lot happening behind the scenes before the first truck arrives at your jobsite. From scheduling and batching to dispatch and delivery, every step is carefully coordinated to help keep your project moving.
At Silver Strike Concrete, our team works together throughout the process to help ensure the right concrete is delivered at the right time.
Scheduling Your Delivery
Once your order is placed, the delivery is scheduled based on your requested date, time, location, and the type and quantity of concrete needed for your project. Proper scheduling helps coordinate plant operations, truck availability, and other deliveries already planned for the day.
Construction schedules can change quickly, so communication between customers and the dispatch team is an important part of the process.
Producing the Concrete
On the day of your delivery, the concrete is produced at the batch plant using carefully measured raw materials. Modern batch plants are designed to accurately proportion materials to produce consistent concrete that meets the specified mix design.
Each order is produced specifically for the project it is intended to serve.
Dispatching the Trucks
After the concrete is batched, dispatch coordinates truck departures and delivery timing. This helps keep deliveries moving efficiently while accounting for traffic, travel time, and changing jobsite conditions.
Communication between dispatch, drivers, and customers helps keep projects running as smoothly as possible.
Delivering to the Jobsite
Once the truck arrives, the driver works with the contractor or crew to position the truck safely and deliver the concrete where it is needed.
Every project is different, and having the jobsite prepared before the truck arrives can help make the placement process more efficient.
Working Together from Start to Finish
A successful concrete delivery depends on more than simply loading a truck. Scheduling, batching, dispatch, transportation, and communication all play an important role in helping projects stay on schedule.
Whether you're placing a small residential order or supplying a large commercial project, Silver Strike Concrete is committed to providing dependable ready mix concrete throughout Northern Nevada.
