Or making secret fishing reefs | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Pro tip: I often offer $10 or $20 for items listed free. Once had a guy respond same day saying, “You win.” (It was interlocking pavers).
I just don’t feel comfortable getting something totally free (if worth a bit of $), but the bonus is that you might get priority if there is a lot of interest. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Problem is, some guy walks down the street with a wheelbarrow of garbage and dumps it in.
Yes championship big that is a joke your way. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Pick it up and put it somewhere else. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Give them away as gifts. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
And it’s usually free. Some places are charging $5 per tonne. That’s probably 3 tonne. Just need a pickup or trailer | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Bury it next to it.
Then you can sell the clean fill you just made.
Step 3: profit | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
I'd rent a truck from home Depot and bring it to the dump. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
"FREE Clean fill" on fb marketplace. People need that for swampy areas, bush paths... ect. I had people lined up to get it. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Post it to fb marketplace, "free fill rock, pickup only" and give it a couple days. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Just toss it in from a distance and it should take care of itself. Concrete driveby | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |

Some cement places take scraps | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Pretend it's a life size jigsaw puzzle, once you have all the pieces fit, you'll have a nice pad to put your next garden shed on. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Done this, took 5 months, but it worked. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
This is the best retaining wall filler you can get. Mixed with gravel you have the perfect backfill. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Are there any regulations on types of concrete you can use, because wouldn't everyone doing this, pollute the lake with potentially sub-par concrete degrading with time? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
FREE SEAWALL! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Rent a wood chipper from homedepot and get all the insurance on it for damage. Throw a few huge chunks in and run for cover. Don't forget to film it all. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
My are is hauling in truckloads of broken concrete as retainer fill on the side of a bridge project. Anywhere with water or steep slopes could use it, or concrete recyclers will make (green) driveway/parking fill and sell it. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Find a concrete recycler and rent a truck | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Put up a sign that says "Do Not Touch!" It'll be cleared in no time 😀
Or try "Not For Sale" or "$25 each"... people will be running off with them so fast! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Use them as Mother Nature’s weights like in Rocky 4 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |

Eat one rock per day for the next 113 years | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
I agree! There’s so many things that my husband wants to get rid of by taking it to the tip which costs money. I always put it on marketplace for free first and 99% of the stuff gets taken lol He’s always like “why do people want this junk” lol | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Most dumps take clean fill for free is you can get it there | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Yup. Someone could use this to help backfill a hole on their property, or line a pond or shoreline. Maybe act as larger drainage stones behind a retaining wall.
You never know. I'd think some people with projects in mind would be happy to come take some or all off your hands. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Offer it for free on Facebook marketplace | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
This can be an issue. A cheap Harbor Freight tarpaulin usually solves this problem, though. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Cheaply but not practical? Bury it, start digging a hole and bury it. Spread the excess dirt over your yard. Or do the shawshank redemption method. Slowly disperse one rock/boulder at a time at the local baseball field | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Bury each one. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I just dumped my whole foundation to my local recycling center. They take it for free. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Throw it over your neighbor's fence in the middle of the night! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Build a fence in front of it. now it’s in your neighbors yard. It’s his problem. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Sledgehammer. Turn it into small pieces. And then i dont know. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
My answer is always "I don't care, they're making it go away!" | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
If you asked the previous owner of my home...he built a deck over the pile. Wasnt causing an issue as the inspector said it looks like it's not damaging and not helping lol | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Or repurpose it in the space, add a bit of mountainous appeal to your space.
If you absolutely do not want 100% Facebook marketplace for sale or free pickup. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
“Not my problem anymore!” Haha | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Paint them red with big white MAGA on them, and sell them as prayer rocks. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Get a shovel and wheel barrow and find a building site that needs fill | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I literally filled my cellar with mine 🤣 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I've heard marketplace described as a free haul away service. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Post it for free . Then start putting a few pieces in the trash cans each week. Ask your neighbors if you can put a few in theirs too. I've gotten rid of tons of concrete this way. Patience equals free or what you already pay for...waste removal! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
If You can’t find someone to come take it for free like many are suggesting.
Many concrete companies will allow you to dispose of it for free with them, (they run it through a crusher and mix it in with new concrete) the catch is generally you have to haul it to their yard and dump it… the benefit is you’re not hauli... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Tell the neighborhood kids not to take any of the rubble. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
one stone a week in the dumpster in about 3 years it should be gone | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Oh, not where I live. Virgina it all free for residents | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Yes. It being concrete isn't even the major issue. If you put up an armored sea wall to stop erosion of your property, it speeds up erosion of your neighbors property. They used to easily be permitted and built but now they aren't being approved as often and had neighbors suing each other. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
This. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Another question is, Why did we have it in the first place?
I ask myself that too often lately. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Put it for free on Facebook marketplace. Maybe someone will want it. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Make sure you've got insurance coverage thats paid up and covers extreme acts of stupidity, replacing your windows is expensive these days. Id still like to see the video though. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Bring it to my house, I’m extending my driveway. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Find a local mountain bike park/trail, find the group who build and maintains it, theyll for sure take it off your hands | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
2 pieces in the garbage at a time | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Some municipalities do not charge for rubble. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Give it away online people will take it maybe? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |

I have a pickup truck, filled it multiple times, and brought it down to my dump. They collect concrete. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Throw it over the fence | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I had a neighbor cleaned out of his garage and put it outside with FREE sign and posted on internet. That might 90% of the stuff was gone in the next two days. For some reason I guess the person didn’t want the junk and returned it where they picked it up. 😂 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
This one kills me, for sure. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Dig a big big big hole. 🕳️ | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Apparently stone garden gnomes are extremely desirable items. This thing probably weighed 50 lbs, was old and mossy AF....and there were people ready to kill for that thing. I had a waiting list. It was overwhelming and very strange. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I did that and they took my sign. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Free fill | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
😂😂 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
If you hire people to do it, manually, be sure your insurance covers injuries. A backhoe or such will
ruin any level area there. If someone uses machinery to level soil, make Sure they know what they are doing. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
If you live near a lake or river, someone with property on the water might want it to help stop erosion. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Make something out of it. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
My next door neighbor ended up paying $600 for riprap to stabilize a ditch on his property. You list that on Facebook Marketplace for free, and someone will come pick it up. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |

2) Jimmy Hoffa’s Casket … super collectible | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Cheaply—- take to the dumpster, offer on Facebook; or put a couple of pieces in the trash can each week— for trash pick up (but it will take ages) | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Concrete recycler will usually take it for free. They crush it and use it for road base | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Start digging | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Drop it off at your nearest concrete mixing plant. They have a trash pile and grind it down then resale it as base for road projects. Source: I do this for a living | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Try searching for a concrete company/manufacturer by your house. Sometimes they take old concrete for free to make new stuff. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |

one brick a week in your trash. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I even had stuff I was going to throw out that I posted NOT for free and ended up making money off it. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
That’s called “clean fill”. It has value, although probably “free” works if pickup is needed. FB Market Place as others have suggested. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Let's say you get no bites on anyone taking it. What would be the answer? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I want to do this | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Build you a natural area and go through the stuff to get what you want of it. Then, get rid of it using suggestions from the others prior to my suggestion. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |

Personally I would repurpose it as hard structure for a garden bed or water feature. Then again, most people have no imagination. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Couple of pieces each week into your rubbish bin. I got rid of 1.5T of waste soil that way. Took quite a few months though.... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |

I grew up in a street where most of the neighbours had lived there, unchanged, for 30 or 40 years. When council cleanup came around, some of the stuff I'd see on the footpath had me asking a different question: "Why didn't they throw that shit out last year?" | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
Fire in the hole | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
