Hi,

I'd like to build a small parking lot in my backyard without any roof or
walls, just to park my car there.
I think the cheapest solution would be a "do-it-yourself"gravel parking
spot.
Does anybody know what is required for such project? I suspect it's more
than just ordering and spreading gravel there.

Do I have to build any foundation for that ?... etc...

Any answers or suggestions will be apprecaited.

Thank you,

Vadim

There's a local plant near me that manufactures that type. A local
mason supply can order them for you. They're fairly cheap and easy to
put down.

Why not just park on the grass. If you ever kill the grass and it
gets muddy, then you can add the gravel.

Why wait? Shouldn't be too long before the grass is dead.

Rico, Rico, Rico. You missed the answer I was waiting for from you --
you've been in the big city for too long.

The correct answer is: First, find out where your septic tank is.
