Where can I take all the rocks from my garden?

There a million small, medium and large–size rocks in my pea-patch garden. Where can I take them?

    You can try calling Bedrock Industries, a recycling place in Seattle: http://www.bedrockindustries.com/

    They may have a good suggestion for you.

    or:
    Use them for mosaics.
    Use for edges on your beds.

    Here's what the county says, although they're probably thinking more of people with truckloads of gravel: http://your.kingcounty.gov/solidwaste/wdidw/material.asp

    (you might have to browse again to get the rock page)

    Apparently you can take them to transfer stations (although it doesn't say if they charge for rock). You might try calling them with a rough estimate of how much you have. I have a sneaking suspicion that if you tell them you just have a couple bucket loads of garden rocks, they'll laugh you off the phone.

    It's not like they're toxic waste or even really arguably garbage. If you're just talking about a bucket load or two, I'd just dump 'em by the road next time you're up in the mountains. If they're pretty looking rocks, you might try listing them on craigslist-- maybe someone doing some light landscaping would want 'em.
