✅ Measure Accurately: Use a measuring tape for precise dimensions. Round up to the nearest half-foot for safety.
✅ Consider Compaction: Gravel will settle and compact over time, so the waste factor accounts for this.
✅ Check Local Codes: Some areas have requirements for driveway materials and thickness.
✅ Plan for Delivery: Ensure you have access for delivery trucks and a suitable location to dump the gravel.
✅ Prepare the Base: Level and compact the ground before adding gravel for best results.
