Seen some places make chairs / stools out of them by just putting some wood & a cushion on top

I have enough chairs and stools. Just want this thing gone and put to better use.

Stick it on Facebook if the company won’t buy it off you

EBay, gumtree, Craigslist etc, get a friend to post it he’ll even call up a pub supply company and ask if they take empty kegs

Then make an account or use a similar service…

But that’s literally the answer, look for any place or person that transforms them to chairs or stools and gift it.

I’d like for it to continue as a keg again. I’m trying to find a place where they’ll take the keg back. I’m too far from shiner brewery. All else fails I’ll definitely let it be repurposed

Soooo.... You know what you want to do with it, then. We don't K ow where you are other than state, and you're in a big one. I'm not sure how you expect us to help.

Start calling local breweries and bars, and see if anyone wants it.
