How to decorate driveway?
How can I decorate my driveway entrance with cinder blocks that I have. Now the sides of driveway there are river rocks placed at ends of culverts. Delivery trucks run over the rocks and embed them in ground and crush the ends of culvert. I want to make something hard that the trucks will not be able to run over.

Can you make some fencing to keep trucks away completely from this area? Here's an example. You could make it an length you needed and then add planter boxes or tubs to male it look pretty. The great thing about this is that you can move it if necessary without having to dig anything up!

Hello there,
Seems to me the drivers of the trucks are not to good at reversing. Place a notice at bottom of drive saying " All Damage will need to be paid for" or Install a Security Camera or Add a marker to your border pointing outwards, so drivers hit that before doing anymore damage. If you have a narrow driveway, suggest drivers do not reverse in!! Best wishes.
Hi Bev, I feel for you, seems like people are just careless sometimes, Hope these help you, you can make columns /pillars out of the cinder blocks so the trucks will see them

You can turn your cinder blocks into planters:

The covert pipes should be in crushed shale anyway but if you need put cinder blocks along Lides of the pipes both sides to protect it and paint them a bride color so they see them.
Hi! I think the trick will be making them high enough and solid enough to make them visible but not create a hazard to vehicles. Good luck and stay safe!
You can build a wall about 3' high out of landscaping blocks. Use something like Loctite Power Grab to hold together.
