Concrete prices per yard in Maryland
There is no verified statewide price for Maryland, and we are not going to print one. What we can do is show you every figure that is genuinely published, name its source and date, explain what moves a real quote, and list the 31 NRMCA-certified plants across 26 Maryland cities that serve those ZIPs, with direct numbers you can call.
What is published, and at what level

Producer price trend in the South region
Ready-mix producer prices are tracked every month by the federal government, for the South region. The figures below are that index, which measures the direction and size of price movement at the plant. It is not a dollar price per yard, and we do not convert it into one. Each region is published on its own base, so we report movement over time and never an index level.
Through June 2026, preliminary and subject to revision.

Certified plants we can show you in Maryland
This is our own data and the one thing on the page that is genuinely local. We list 31 NRMCA-certified plants in Maryland, of which 31 carry everything a ZIP match needs (a verified listing, a working phone, and a locatable ZIP). They sit across 26 cities. Locations are ZIP-area approximate, because the certification source carries no street address.

What moves a Maryland quote
Four things, in roughly this order of size. Strength, which is really cement content: on the one supplier price list we cite (Townsend Concrete, price list updated 12 April 2026, retrieved 31 July 2026), 3,000 PSI is $162 per yard and 5,000 PSI is $178 per yard on the same day. Yardage, because short loads carry a surcharge and a minimum charge that can outweigh the mix choice on a small pour. Distance from the batch plant, priced in service zones inside a haul limit of roughly 90 minutes. And timing, since weekend delivery, standby minutes and weather admixtures are all billed on top.

That supplier operates in California, not Maryland. The gap between the two mixes is the transferable part, not the amounts.

Common questions
How much is a yard of concrete in Maryland?
Nobody publishes a verified Maryland figure, and we will not invent one. What is published is national: $160 to $195 per cubic yard, with a reported 2025 average of $179.95 per cubic yard (ConcreteNetwork.com, updated 14 July 2026, retrieved 31 July 2026). Your Maryland number comes from the plant that serves your job address, and it moves with mix strength, yardage, haul distance and pour date. Give us your job ZIP on this page and we will show you the NRMCA-certified plants serving it, with direct numbers to call for a quote.
Why is there no published price list for Maryland?
Ready-mix is priced per plant, per day. A plant sets its number from cement cost, its own batching schedule, how far your site is from its yard, and how much of the truck you fill. Maryland spans more than one haul market, so a single statewide price would be wrong nearly everywhere in it. A state-level list price does not exist to publish.
How many certified plants can you reach in Maryland?
31 NRMCA-certified plants across 26 Maryland cities can be matched to a job ZIP and shown to you with a working phone number, out of 31 certified plants we list in the state. We only publish a state pricing page where that number clears 20, so a page never promises coverage we do not have.
Does concrete cost more in some parts of Maryland than others?
Almost always, and distance from the batch plant is the usual reason. Ready-mix hauls are capped at roughly 90 minutes, so suppliers price in service zones and charge more per load the further out you are. Two sites 60 miles apart in Maryland can get materially different numbers from the same company on the same day.
Do you sell concrete in Maryland or quote prices?
No. We run an independent directory of NRMCA-certified ready-mix plants. Tell us your Maryland job ZIP and we will show you the certified plants serving that ZIP area, with their direct phone numbers, so you can call for a quote. We do not send your spec to plants and we do not collect quotes on your behalf. The price comes from the plant.
Other states
Where these numbers come from
We hold no price data of our own. We run a directory of NRMCA-certified plants, and certification is not pricing. So every figure on this page is somebody else's published number, named and dated below. Anything we could not source, we left off the page.
