Just wondered what people are doing with them, the recycle chap used to take them, but they wont any more, I have 2 years of build up and could do with getting rid of some.

drill them full of holes and use as drain tile repairs

If youve got over 300 could they not reuse them?

I swapped to using ALL Silotite this year as feed up with 800 plastic tubes a year and having problems re disposal. Have used some for drainage but my local recycling centre will take the but at around £100 fore to pay and I have to take them in

Take them to a Star Wars convention and tell the loons that they are Light Sabres and sell them at £10 a pop

I have a 1100 litre trade waste bin from the local council. Gets emptied every fortnight. They go in there along with most other rubbish.

You must be from Yorkshire if you think that disposal is expensive! About 12p a roll? Very little compared to purchase price?

There was a picture on another thread where tubes had been made into a garden fence.

Mine are all cardboard this year. I have saved them and will have a go at using them as fuel in the log burner.

We have cardboard tubes with wrap on that got left out in the rain,the tubes swelled and now won't fit on the baler. Any one with an idea how to get them to fit again? Almost 2 full rolls!
