    Question How to get rid of this concrete?

    What's the best way to get rid of this concrete I dug out of the garden box? The Yaris is not really up to hauling it away. Unless there's someone on KB that would like to make a few bucks to take it away for me?

    Pry up a few of those fence rails and lob it through. Throw some lawn clippings on top to help with the neighbor's aesthetics afterwards I guess

    Pretty sure someone in Christchurch would want it... they have loads of rubble lying about, they must like it.

    Check out the concrete recyclers around town. I'm not sure if they collect though these days.

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    invirowaste will take it as hard fill, from memory its $120 a tonne and thats cheaper than a 3m hard fill skip.
    other wise if you want I can run over it with my 30 tonne compactor and muss it down into the dirt for you..

    Not a bad idea actually. I'll use the flat pieces to lay a stone path up against the house so I'm not walking in mud during the winter. Then lay the rest up against the fence and pour potting mix into it. I've got some rockery mixture seeds and some already gown in pots. Will see how it goes.

    Throw it over the fence. It's probably easier if you live next to an empty squat though.
