I have a pile of cinder blocks… obviously not a huge pile that i want to get rid of. The town of tonawanda doesn’t seem to like me leaving them on my curb on garbage day nor do they enjoy me throwing one in the tote every week. Any ideas how to dispose of this stuff?

Call the town sanitation dept. or whoever they contract out to and ask them how they should be disposed of.

Amherst lets you drop that stuff off behind the highway department if you’re a resident. I went with a few broken up cement pieces in my GTO once and the guy looked at me like I was crazy. I guess most people use trucks. :lol:
