    5-10 bricks in your rubbish bin each week and a few in your direct neighbours bins in the morning after they've gone to work.

    Otherwise you can get tip passes for ~$60/car load.

    Not sure how much it would cost to get a skip to dispose of building waste.

    There are companies that do have second hand tiles and bricks and pavers.

    Look in the phone book and see if any of them want em. Might be able to get em to collect em for you.

    I'm the noob you all pwn!

    Ute up to 1 tonne or tandem axle trailer $45.40 per tonne
    I'll be going with this option as it's only 2 trips with the car trailer.

    Cheers for the suggestions.

    I took a whole heap of bricks to the tip last year - from memory it weighed in around 2 tonnes or so. When we got there they weighed the trailer & said will cost big $$$ , but then someone else came over & said they're recyclable so FREE.

    (Would guess all tips do this, but fyi the one I went to was Tamala Park - just behind Kinross)

    If you dump them in the street I'm sure someone will clear them away.

    A bit tardy, but I was going to suggest 2100 sacks and 2100 kittens.

    Desmo'd suggest a cemetary.

    You could build a shed out of them to put them in...

    What is best in life? Troll the forums, see the threads derailed before you and hear the lamentations of the moderators.

    ... im sure theres people out there who would be more than willing to take them away...

    I know one of the brickies building our house in Shelley has taken a liking to taking as many of our bricks home with him as possible... although he may not like the video footage and photos I have of him doing it though
