By large I mean by area, not [necessarily] density or weight. Preferably something that isn’t collapsable or capable of being easily disassembled. I want the delivery of the item to be a major pain in the ass.
I’m not a homeowner, don’t plan on being one any time soon, and have zero use for their services, but damn am I sold by their “Why CHIPDROP is probably NOT for you” promo video. That’s advertising gold, right there.
Just get one to your apartment. I’m sure the landlord will love it
We got this, and I did actually use it all but my goodness. They drop it in the driveway, it can’t stay there. I moved it in the wheelbarrow for a day, then my husband and stepson worked it for a day, then we asked our lawn guy if he knew anyone who wanted $300 to move the rest (as honestly after moving half of it, it looked the same size!) and he sent us a strapping country boy, like a caricature of a farmboy, who moved the rest of it to the back, then I distributed it where it needed to go.
It’s neat that that service exists, but you can also call up local arborist companies and ask, or wait until one is chipping a bunch of debris at a neighbor’s house and ask the truck driver in person.
Outside of the awesome ‘national parks’ answer from someone else, I would have to assume the best cost-to-surface-area purchase in the world would be really cheap land in the American West, Australian outback, Russian tundra, Canadian North, etc. Assuming it doesn’t have oil on it, some of those areas, land practically given away. Sometimes you can get governments to pay you to take it on and try to do something useful with it.
If you consider that ownership usually includes mineral rights for miles under the ground, this really starts to look like the obvious choice of your looking for volume, not just area.
How do you get this free or cheap land in the Canadian tundra, again?
You most likely don’t. You would have to talk to the territorial governments who then would have to talk to the indigenous land holders. And even then it’s a logistical nightmare where the sun sets for a month.
Also if it is Crown land also doesn’t mean that the government is actually looking to sell or develop the particular land even if it isn’t in a National park.
I didn’t say Canadian tundra, I say Canadian North.
Hers a listing in northern SK for $129k CAD that’s nearly 12k acres. That’s $10.75 CAD per acre. That’s pretty cheap in my book.

You’re off by 3 orders of magnitude…Retracted.
You shouldn’t think big, necessarily, you should think heavy. Postage to be paid on delivery.
Lead sheet in a return envelope is a great thank you for unsolicited application offers.
By area activated charcoal has a ton of surface area
Drywall. Heavy, fragile, 2 out of 3 dimensions are relatively large. Easy to transport when you’re stacking them in a truck but difficult up the stairs for example.
Bubble wrap. Cheap-ish per m³ if taking up space is more important but Easy to carry a roll of that around alone.
Still gotta be careful when they are in the teuck though.
Whatever you end up doing, OP, you owe us a pic or video of the result!
Does it have to be usable?
Air, cuz it’s free, and by size the biggest object in our planet
No way, at all. The Earth itself isn’t air and has WAY more volume than the atmosphere.
True, but land costs money depending on where its at. Water, could be a close 2nd but for the price, you can’t beat free.
I think if you’re looking for largest volume of material to dump on your enemy per its cost, your best options are either going to be dirt or possibly a huge amount of expanded polystyrene, i.e. styrofoam. If you’re doing this outside I think dirt is a better option, unless you can find somewhere to source really huge blocks of styrofoam. A thousand cubic feet of packing peanuts (approximately $2714) would certainly be funny, but they’d probably be prone to blowing away. That’s no good if you want the mark having a tough time getting rid of them.
I know this one, it’s skin!

Bedbug ridden camper with no axles. A tow company with a flatdeck could easily load and unload still, but if you got it delivered while they were not home it would be a nightmare. Bonus points if it’s an apartment complex and you can put it in their stall.
