Needed...... - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-05-2007
Hey I dodn't know if this goes here or where but I thought I'd take a shot at it. Mods if this needs to be someplace else please move it. Thanks.
Ok Mother nature has decided that the earth needs my gravel driveway more than I do. For some reason in the fall I had a driveway full of nice hard rocks. Now the snow has finally started to melt and I now have a 4wd mudpit. I am looking for someone with connections or that works at a gravel pit that can get me some gravel. I am definatly willing to pay! I have a truck to haul it but it's only a Colorado so I'd need to make a few trips. Hopefully someone local would help too.(not literally help just a local person umm ok I don't know how to word it lol) Hopefully you know what I mean. Thanks

ok I'll see if I can find one local. I really didn't want to shovel into the truck and then back out but if it'd save me cash well then so be it lol

Contact a local Landscaping company. They usually have everything from Sand to large rock. They will deliver, so that is one less thing to worry about. Get a measurement of the driveway, and how deep you want the gravel. They should be able to help you decide how much is needed.

Make friends with a concrete guy. (That's what my Dad did.) We can park about 9-10 cars in our driveway. The top is 3 wide and 2 deep while the straight part leading up to it is 3-4 cars long. We put in a basement too. Haha
