A portable concrete mixer uses a rotating drum to mix and transport wet concrete. A batch plant measures and loads the cement, aggregate, sand and water used to make concrete. Mix Right 2DH mixers can be used independently or paired with a 2CL batch plant for higher-volume production.

The right size depends on how much concrete you need per pour, how often you will use the mixer and what vehicle will tow it. Mix Right offers portable mixer trailers in approximately 1- to 3-cubic-yard capacities, including a swivel model for more precise placement. Compare the available portable concrete mixer models.

Mix Right portable mixers can produce approximately 3 to 12 cubic yards per hour, depending on the model, loading method, batch size and operator. Production may be higher when the mixer is paired with a batch plant that loads materials more efficiently.

Yes, but the required truck depends on the mixer, its loaded weight and the vehicle’s rated towing capacity. Larger mixers require greater towing capacity. Always confirm the mixer’s GVWR, hitch and braking requirements against the tow vehicle before selecting a model.

Yes. Mix Right 2DH portable mixers use a rotating drum that can continue mixing concrete in transit, similar to a ready-mix truck. This allows concrete to be loaded in one location and transported to the pour location while it continues mixing.

Yes, particularly when you regularly need smaller batches or work in areas with limited ready-mix availability. Producing concrete on your schedule can reduce short-load charges, delivery delays and unused concrete. The actual savings depend on material costs, labor, annual volume and local ready-mix pricing.

Production varies by model and configuration. Mix Right’s automated 2CL systems can produce approximately 20 to 100 cubic yards per hour, depending on aggregate storage, conveyor size, material supply and the equipment receiving each batch.
