PLAN B on RV "carport"
After doing some measuring and sketching to scale, I decided that my plan of adding to my concrete parking area, plus a shed, adjacent to the house, is not going to work. 1) the size I want puts it outside the setback requirements for my lot, which includes sheds, driveways, porches, garages, carports, etc 2) the height of the RV shed is going to look really bad next to my house.
So.... on to plan B.
There is a good spot adjacent to a current metal storage shed on the opposite end of my lot. Easy to get in & out from the street, plenty of room, uphill from the sewer cleanout, so I can dump the tanks there.
I want to just do a gravel pad (crusher run limestone works well here, when it's packed right) but it will need to be built up about 10 inches on one long side to be level.
Any recommendations on a type of block or stone edging to keep the gravel from creeping out into the yard? Preferably cheap and easy.
:D
I do NOT want to use landscape timbers or crossties. Around here they are just termite homes.
I'll get the gravel in, get it level, use it for a year to make sure it's packed well, and then get my cover installed.
