Default Free - Concrete paving stones 24" X 30"

Anyone want some concrete paving stones?

I'm currently in the process of flipping a house and I'm renovating the back yard, and they've been removed, cleaned and put in the property's garage. There's 41 of them and they're all in good shape (actually 42 but one's broken in half). They were painted at some point but it appears the wrong paint was used as it's flaking a lot. Might need some TLC and a fresh coat of proper paint.

I though I'd try to help out anyone who might want them. At worst I'll get them disposed of but I figure there is nothing wrong with them structurally, so I'd hate to see them go in the garbage needlessly. They weigh quite a bit and the stores charge around $10-15 per tile for ones that are that big.



Let me know.

I could probably use some. Like 12-15.

What part of the city are you in?

I picked up like 70 of these (cleaner) for $200 last summer and hauled them ourselves (4 of us) and that was a pain in the arse, I will never do that again. My back was soar for a week.

Whoever picks these up, I'd recommend picking up couple of homeless guys and get them to haul these for you.

Should all be gone now to both Ken0042 and Tangj, so I'll post again later if things don't quite work out.

Thanks.

If anyone is trying to get rid of about 25 of those things, I'll take them. Looks don't matter; just going to lay them out in the corner of my yard to make a parking pad.

Winnie, I'd be interested if there were more than 10-15. If someone else produces about the same, I'll grab yours and the other person's and make my parking pad.

I figured I'd throw an update just showing how it looks now verses what it was

Still have some things to do, like replace the down spout, clean the sand off the tiles and do a small amount of painting.
