    Default Very Large Rocks: Is there a market?

    We have about 41 of these VERY large, rectangular cut pieces of limestone. They probably average 5' L x 3' H x 4' W. Average weight is probably in the 10,000 lb range.

    Is there a market for something like that? If so, where? Who would I call to find out about possibly selling these things? I don't have a clue.

    Yes, I would start by contacting local landscape companies or local stone suppliers just to get an idea of what you have and what they are worth in your locality then decide how to sell them.

    You could build a hell of a retaining wall out of them or split / cut them in to smaller blocks. Who knows, depending on the quality of the stone they could be used for carving as well.

    It's the shipping that will get you. Maybe carve a few words on each one and send them via media mail?
    Math is tough. Let's go shopping!

    I'm sure someone has a use or a need for these things. They're accessible so getting them out, for someone who has the proper equipment, wouldn't be an issue. They're pretty cool, to be honest. Could definitely be useful for all sorts of things.

    People have been telling me my whole life to go pound rocks...

    Reach out to local landscape companies. My sister was telling me how much theirs cost and it was a lot.

    If that doesn't work, find a PRS match director in your area, maybe they can build a stage and name it after you.
