I%26#039;m assuming that this stuff was loaded as a liquid and is now a solid.

Have you tried just selling them?  There is a market for sulfur, even if it%26#039;s not very big.  If you can%26#039;t sell the entire cars-full, maybe you can cut it into smaller chunks with jackhammers or water jets or the like and sell it by the truckload.  It%26#039;ll be even easier if you can heat the stuff up so you can just pour it out (unfortunately this can%26#039;t be done with steam at atmospheric pressure, because sulfur melts at about 112°C).
