You are both correct and appreciate the ideas. Actually found out using the concrete pavers was just too cost prohibitive. Can pour solid concrete cheaper. Even found similar plastic devices similar but also pricey. I am going to go with 6 inch recycled concrete 57 stone but the recycled curbs is intriguing if I can find something like that. Great base for using the 57 stone. Sure appreciate the input. Great forum
Thanks

Thanks very much for this great idea. I have talked to a lot of folks about this and this is the BEST solution anyone has suggested. It solves all the issues and I am betting it will be the most cost effective of all the options. THANKS again. Ken

I just purchased new 5th wheeler that weighs 10k. . Live in central Fla in area with sugar sand. I want to construct a parking space about 20x50 ft, obviously larger than rig and plan to cover it w open metal carport. Concrete pad is very expensive. Asphalt killings has been recommended but I doubt will hold up with sugar sand. Suggestions on a base and thickness ? Would clay or fines material provide the best base? Or any suggestions? Or spring for a 5 inch concrete pad? The carport won't be load bearing on the pad. I'm just concerned about the 5th wheeler weight and my 3/4 ton pickup. All the weight will be in the same place every time I park it, the wheels. Thanks for any insight or suggestions.
