k thanks ill check into it. Ill pick em up... I got a rig that I can use.

then you have to figure out how to get them back off your vehicle or trailer and placed where you want them. if where you want them can be reached by the deliviery trucks crane you might be better to have them delivered.

i know a guy that recently bought a bunch recently and had them delivered. he shopped around and a place in richmond was the best price for some reason.

i think it was united lock-block but i'm not sure. there is a bunch of those places on mitchell island and in richmond but it's quite a drive from mission with a rig.

Ill shop around and see. Im just going to have them dropped in my front yard. i got a hiab so moving them around is no bid deal.

hi
i am on the Island, they are about 1 cubic yard onf concrete, most places have moulds that they dump there excess concrete in making the lock blocks. Usually $65 per block & up, depending on qaulity. They weight 4200 lbs each, a large backhoe will lift them. Use lift rated straps or chain to handle them and execise caution. A few blocks... get a stinger/picker truck and then you can place them at the same time
