Kansas vs. neighboring states
| State | Typical per cubic yard | vs. U.S. |
|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma | $105–$130 | −11.7% |
| Kansas | $107–$132 | −10.0% |
| Nebraska | $108–$133 | −9.6% |
| Missouri | $109–$135 | −8.2% |
| Colorado | $121–$149 | +1.4% |
The lowest typical prices among Kansas and its neighbors are in Oklahoma. If you live near the state line, a supplier across the border may be worth a quote — but delivery distance usually decides the final price.
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 Kansas's overall price level (90.0 against a U.S. average of 100). Prices within the state can differ a lot between a metro area and a rural county.
