I need enough to cover a road that is about 400'. Also looking for a couple rolls of that black stuff they put down before basing. Don't know the name of that crap.

Hit up Ed Mcleod with sunbelt crushed concrete. It's cheaper than redstick.
And the stuff you're looking for is filter fabric, you can get that from Industrial Fabrics off O'neal.

That's landscape fabric, that's shite.
Call industrial fabrics, ask for reject/damaged non-woven geotextile.
I have some thick woven stuff I use for weed control sometimes that I yanked out of a dumpster on a jobsite, but it's only about 300 sf total.

damn should I not use it for a driveway?

Weed barrier no problem, but if you actually want it to help support the driveway then no.
If you will get lots of traffic definitely not, only a few cars it may not matter at all.
That's a weed barrier and not designed to provide any type of strength between the layers.
Edit- normally fabric is used for 2 things, either to provide separation to prevent the different materials from mixing. When you drive on the gravel it shoves the stones into the ground and if it's really soft and wet it mixes and the stones don't stay on top.
Or to provide strength to the bottom of the material (woven fabric). I use woven to keep big rocks from sliding all over their place and migrating into the marsh. It attempts to provide a uniform foundation to support the rock and keep it in a pile.

Definitely the place on O'Neal. We have been using them for GS12 for years when we build tower sites in Louisiana. It is the best stuff around. I think the smallest roll they will do is 12' in length by 100'. So you definitely need to ask for remnants or damaged. Put it down with stakes and you will never need to worry about weeds. I used to bring my grandmother sheets of it. She used it in her garden and just cut holes where the plants were growing. She never had to weed between rows.

I need around 400 feet to start with.
Are they north or south of the interstate?
