Six years ago I used red cinders for my driveway. The neighbor laughed at me for doing it! It was cheap and looked "pretty". Then the rains of 2006 hit! ALL the red not only wash down and off my driveway but out onto the road, down the hill towards the stop sign, but off the road and into the jungle! Cinder float wonderfully! I then used base course gravel with the fines and it has never washed away again. Unless you are on a VERY steep hill, I don't think you'll need anything to hold it. Might be wise to drive back and forth over it many times to compact it if the weather is looking threatening when it goes down. Just my 2 1/2 cents worth.
