Water butts no longer fit for purpose (Presteigne LD8)

Hi Fellow Freeglers. Has anyone got any water butts that have sprung a leak and can no longer be used for water please? After 2 older butts developed leaks I found they were excellent for filling with soil and planting up trees which have deeper roots.
Thank you ( Of course I will collect but I would rather not drive much further than 10 miles from Presteigne if possible)
