What should I send a civil contractor before asking for a quote?

What should I send for an asphalt driveway quote?
Photos, approximate area, access details, drainage concerns and any council requirements help speed up the quoting process.
What is the difference between a vehicle crossing and a driveway?
A vehicle crossing crosses council land (berm/footpath) and usually needs approval. A driveway sits entirely on private land.
Why does basecourse matter before asphalt or driveway surfacing?
Basecourse provides drainage, stability and load distribution. Poor base preparation is the main cause of premature surface failure.
