    We have probably a couple of hundred bricks along with various other off cuts of wood / other crap under a back balcony we want to get rid of .

    the none brick stuff isn’t an issue for me but I don’t want to personally move the bricks

    Is there a demand for old bricks out there . Some mixture but mainly mid red with 6 hole . Not a whole pile of “ character bricks “

    Take a photo and put it up for FREE on marketplace. We've done that a few times with bricks and pavers. It's amazing what some people will take. Oh, get rid of the other rubbish first, so you can get a good photo of them.

    You might be able to get someone to move them out from under the house and stack them neatly, then FB marketplace the lot.

    It is amazing what people will come and get if you advertise it as “free”!

    I have moved them previously and they are relatively neatly stacked . They're under a balcony so easy to access . That's why I don't want to do it again ....

    So market place it is.

    Last lot we got rid of on Marketplace there was about 100 of them. Good luck.
