Old treated lumber.
 
I tore down my old porch and need to get rid of the lumber, it's very old treated lumber that's rotten to the point it's falling apart. I've always heard you shouldn't burn it but I'm not sure how else to get rid of it that doesn't cost a fortune, any suggestions?

If it's old it's probably CCA. Illegal to burn in all 50 states. CCA is exempted from being required to go to an EPA certified landfill. Regular trash should take it or there may be a construction debris landfill in your are that will take it if you have a lot. A 12 foot 2X6 has and ounce of arsenic in it.

Tim,
Take it to the same place the Lone Ranger took his,
to the dump,
to the dump,
to the dump dump dump.

Dump. Not worth the risks burning. Play it safe.
