I live in east Texas and have a driveway off the main road that is over one half mile long and about fifteen feet wide. I want to lay down roofing shingle tabs instead of paving the drive with asphalt or pouring concrete but I am having a difficult time finding them. Where can I purchase these by the truckload and have them delivered?

For you need your also taking big chance of shingles dumped there are alot of nails and ask if they may be able to see dumpster truck ask him where they dump not joke go there and ask him where.
If you’re going to do something like this, I would definately not get them at the dump. When roofers remove shingles from a roof, they use a special shovel that acts like a big scraper blade. That means they take up nails and all. Say that you find 5000 shingle at the dump. With at least 2 nails per shingle, thats 10,000 nails youre laying down in your driveway and running your expensive tires over. Its not worth it in the long run.
I suggest a crushed stone called chert. Its a very small gravel with rock duct mixed in. After its watered down and packed down its like concrete. It’s fairly cheap and you can get it at any gravel yard or a dump truck service can usually hook you up.
Paving your road with asphalt shingles? You live in East Texas all right. Yippee-ki-yi-yay.
