Do they sell culverts longer than 20 ft?
Posted on 8/18/18 at 3:35 pm

My driveway needs to be "re-did" and one problem I have is the culvert is too short I believe. I have a hair pin turn off the road and if the culvert were 30 feet long it would give drivers a lot wider area to turn in. But I've scoured the internet and most box stores or home retailers don't carry more than 20 ft.
Do I have to conjoin two pieces or can somebody tell me where I can locate a longer piece?

If you are talking concrete then you can just hook them together. Depends on the material. How big are you talking about 3’?

I think it's standard for them to be 20'. Just join a couple together

If you put two together that can give youn40 feet. Flex seal them together

Concrete RCP comes in 8' sections, plastic pipe in 20'. You can technically get plastic pipe longer but its expensive to deliver. The benefit of plastic HDPE is that you can fully assemble beside the ditch and just drop it in.

Metal and plastic in 24 and 30 foot lengths. If you need 40 feet join 2 20 footers with the correct band. Some plastic pipes are available with bell ends that slip together.
Look for a pipe dealer not a big box store. I can fix up up in SW Alabama.

20’ for plastic is standard

Some places will sell you a full 20ft with a bell end and 1/2 of the another. If they send you the male end just mate to the female end of the full length or vice versa.

Yes, they sell 30’ sticks, but just get two 20s with a band if need be. Assuming you are going with corrugated metal. I just got some 18” for like $16/ft galvanized metal.

Ive had 24' plastic. Or you get 20'. they sell a coupler for some pipe and some has a bell on one end. Im talking 12" and up. Biggest ive bought is 30" I think the smaller diameter comes in the longer lengths but its been a while since ive bough some.

you can get it over 20', but be prepared to have a piece of equipment with some sort of lifting device that can spread the load over 30'. if not you will turn that pipe into a wet noodle. why not buy the shorter pieces and spice them, they do make couplers or the pipe can have bell and spigot connections you know.
