I have small white marbley gravel in my driveway and I need to replenish - does anyone have recommendations where to get some from? |

That place on Springfield Ave (Maplewood Nursery?) may have some. If you can't find anything closer, I remember this place had gravel. I got brick from them, but they have gravel too. Structural Stone & Brick 323 Rte 46 West Fairfield 973-227-0500 |

Thanks Lilb, but there has to be somewhere closer - google has nothing around here. |

Garden suppliers may have something for you (or be able to point you in the right direction). You can start by calling the Mill and seeing if they can direct you. Alternatively, I wonder if a driveway company wouldn't be able to deliver a load of pebbles for you? |

Home Depot probably has those landscaping rocks available by the bag. I'd say instead of that (you'll need lots of bags) get a landscaping place (like Millstone or other) to deliver by the yard/truckload. If you let them know the dimensions of the driveway and the depth, they'll be able to tellyou how much you need. Once they deliver it, you'll have to rake it into place. |

Mem, if you get on 78West from Springfield, a couple of miles up on the right you'll see the back of a garden/stone center - the front of it I believe is by the Shop Rite in Millburn, past the car wash (off Main Street). I'm sure they have it. Although if they did, surely someone would have mentioned it before me...) |

Thanks all - I called Millstone - Las, the place on 78 is called Turfgrass in Millburn which Millstone recommended, and they are delivering three yards of the stuff this week. I told the guy I couldn't find them on google or the phone book or through directory assistance, he just laughed. Thanks again! |

I've dealt with the Turf Grass guys - a good choice, you'll be happy. |

So my husband just tells me we need 5 yards of pea gravel delivered tomorrow. I called Millstone but got the machine. I can't find the Turf Grass number anywhere! Mem or anyone else, can you post their number? Thanks! |
