What can I do with it. Can it go on the (small) compost bin, be
scattered round the garden, or dumped?
Luckily it's in a carrier bag; box too wet to pick up.
My garden is very small and currently an overgrown mess. No bare soil
to scatter it on!
Asvice please.

Scatter it, insofar as you can. Provided that it is not in TOO
large lumps or on top of green foliage, don't worry about it.

+1. Try and break it up into as small lumps as reasonably possible.
Perhaps bring it indoors and put it in a warm place to dry out a bit
first.

I'd dry it out, then in the spring break it up (Jump on it it hit it
with a hammer if needed then use it on the garden.
If you spread it on the ground now any goodness will wash out over the
winter.
