What affects the price
Ready-mix prices depend on cement and aggregate costs, the distance from the batch plant, the mix strength (PSI) and additives, and how much you order — loads under 10 cubic yards carry a short-load fee.
The numbers on this page are estimates for planning. They take a national 2026 price range and scale it by Hawaii's overall price level (108.6 against a U.S. average of 100). Prices within the state can differ a lot between a metro area and a rural county.
