Hi - I'm sorting out a load of old records and I'm probably going to have several hundred old 12" singles to dispose of. These will all be pretty rubbish - mainly dance promo singles from 2000-2003ish. There's no gems (yet) that I would sell individually, or that a collector would jump on in a charity shop / car boot sale.


I don't think that a charity shop would really welcome 200+ bad records that nobody has ever heard of. I need the space so I don't have time to ebay them all gradually, or make them into ash trays and quirky bowls.


I'm reluctant to landfill them, but I think that may be the only option. If so, should I recycle all of the sleeves, or is there a chance that someone will still make use of them if I leave them in their sleeves at the Recycling Centre?


I might put them in the road when we get a dry weekend to see if there's any takers, but then it's off to the Recycling Centre.


I'd welcome any suggestions / experience from people who have been in this situation. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm using discogs to catalogue them and will probably upload the list on here when it's finished. If a charity store doesn't want them (not looking promising at the moment) I'll give the forum first dibs before heading to Old Kent Road.

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
