Reusing a block shed

    Have a farm building (built in 70s) that I'm demolishing - and am looking to reuse the concrete blocks and floor slab.

    Would it be any good for the subsurface of a new farm roadway? As it will be in quite large chunks of material.

    Are there any other option of how to re-purpose this type of waste?

    Would be perfect for a foundation for farm road and any other place that would need a load of filling. Could get it crushed to fine stone, but the volume in the shed would make it uneconomical.

    Yes but wouldn't I need it broken up into smaller pieces for this?
