That's a shame. Might they be worth anything as scrap wood? Perhaps for some artist or something? They'd probably go pretty quick on Facebook or craigslist.
If they're too destroyed even for that, I'd just get some bags as /u/ConradHalling recommends.

If they aren’t in good shape to recycle I would suggest a junk removal company. I have used Rivas Rubbish Removal before and they had reasonable prices and showed up quickly. Otherwise if budget is on the mind I’d suggest cutting up the pieces yourself and filling up reasonably sized garbage bags. You can put one or two out a week with your regular trash.

Depending on your outdoor space, you could use bagster. You buy one at Home Depot/lowes, fill it with trash, and they come pick it up. Has to be placed outside near the road though

Tags Hardware in Porter Square provides bags for disposing of construction materials. You fill the bag and then make an arrangement for pickup. I don’t know the cost.

I think there's some reclaimed wood place over by Alewife?

I hear you, and it crossed my mind, but when I took them up I can see they are in terrible shape through and through, I don't see a lot of potential in them ☹️

What kind? If it really is that old, it might be pretty valuable. Maybe see if any companies that specialize in old house work will buy it off you. I'd hate to see it go to waste.

Reply to Tool libraries? Does anyone know of any tool libraries in the greater Boston area? (I’m currently looking to borrow a pneumatic floor nailer and would like to avoid renting from a big box store if possible. Though I often get up to projects so I’d love to hear the resources we have!) by aadigiacomo
Does the Somerville tool library not exist anymore? I used some stuff a few years back. Their website was trash tho

it's not cambridge, or boston, but the Publick House in Brookline has a fireplace... though I don't know if it's in use any more. It certainly was back in the day. Regardless, it's cozy af, so there's that.

I know the public library has some courts. Wonder if they have a club?

Ehh or sidewalk if you're going slowly and carefully. That's sort of the big thing with these e-mobility devices, you can become a pedestrian or near-pedestrian whenever it's convenient. Just retain responsibility for not being a jerk, and prioritizing the safety of others around you.

try to give away via a buy nothing group? I would guess that would work out.
