and moving them to Restore is not possible, so I'm wondering
whether I can simply bury them as fill (at least they have a
use here) or use them to construct the retaining wall without
a lot of hassle (e.g. parging, etc).</font></font></p>

Alternately, does someone know of a project that could use these
(14" depth, 12" high, 24" long, insulated ones are R-28)? I
consider donating if so and if the person can pick up.
Location is south Lake Simcoe and I'd need them gone soon.<br>
