I put a garage door in the rear of my garage so I could get in and out for plowing snow without having to move a car out of the garage. Long story short, with Christmas coming I just don't have the money right now to pour an approach and a pad as I had planned on doing. I attached a picture of my "situation" and as you can see, there's a 14" drop between the garage floor and the ground.
What would you guys do as a temporary (but safe and effective) way to make this usable? I have tons of dirt at my disposal, but I figured that dirt alone wouldn't be enough to build a ramp up to the garage floor. All I know is that I need to be able to use this garage door but I can't pour concrete until next year. Do you think maybe riprap would work for the time being? I would like to be able to back the tractor into the garage safely. I'm open to suggestions....
