Today (9/7/2012), I ordered 8 yards of concrete from the Edwardsville, IL plant. My form was 20' X 20' by 6"". According to their calculator, this form required 7.41 cu yds. My installer is a professional with at least 15 years in the trade. He also calculated the requirement at 7.42 cu yds. When the truck had finished, we were about 1/2 yard short. This load cost me $739.62. Since we still needed the half yard, that cost was another $160. My complaint is that the first load was not 8 yards as agreed upon, but something less. At $90 per yrd, why did the second load cost me another $160?. It was not my mistake, nor the mistake of the installer. I will not use them again, nor can I recommend them to anyone\r
