If you have a truckload, or trailer full of concrete and don’t know what to do with it, there are a couple of options locally. Keep in mind that this can change at any time and it is always good to call in advance. Just googling “recycled concrete” or “concrete dumps” in your area will get you some results, but beware some charge by weight (and concrete weighs more than king kings diaper). The cool thing about taking your concrete to these locations is that they grind it up, turn it into recycled concrete, and use it as back-fill for future concrete jobs. That is as green as it gets!
Here are the FREE sites that I recommend.
