    We had a bunch like that a few years ago and had it all burned before Christmas. Just got rid of it. It really was kind of nice.

    space is the problem, there is no where to keep it long term, a neighbor will take a couple buckets ,and this stuff is easy to get ,this pile took ten minutes to pick up at a construction site a few days ago.
