A charity shop wouldn't be interested. Should I separate them? What bin should I put them in at the recycling centre?

Many charity shops still take and sell CDs!

Many people buy them!

Locally, both the Mind shop and the Vision shop sell CDs. Possibly others who I've forgotten. 

If memory serves, the Oxfam shop in Herne Hill does as well, though it sells them at a higher price than most charity shops.

My partner is constantly looking through charity shop CDs, and delighted when he finds music he likes!

Please don't bin them!

Hello everyone 

I have just noticed this post on the forum. If anyone out there has any old CD’s that they wish to part with, I would be happy to take them from you (East Dulwich/Camberwell). 
😀
Kind regards

The CDs are not music or films and of no use to anybody, so how do I get rid of them. Can they be recycled or are they just household waste?

You can also use the CDs on a string as bird scarers on a vegetable patch or allotment!

Loads of other ideas online, eg:

It seems a waste (literally)  for them just to go into landfill.

If I didn't already have a house full of things to do, I would take them off your hands!

Maybe kids at  a nursery or primary school might be able to do something with them?

The cases can be of use to people who still have a CD collection, as so many cases break on the hinges or the bit in the middle. Charity shops may also welcome a few to replace boxes on CDs they have received. But the chances of getting rid of a lot in one place are quite slim, other than the green bin. Maybe put the best ones out on a Saturday morning to see if anyone takes any?

    • I saw about similar to last year. Blue and Great tits, lots of pigeons and collared dove, robin and magpie. In all my years here I have never seen a goldfinch or sparrows. Even my teasels dont attract them. Even though we live in the same area it seems that different species of birds have their favourite sites. I thought it was very misty today which for me made visability a lot harder
    • Hi, I'm looking to find a recommendation for a good orthodontist who works with children. We live in East Dulwich, so someone local would be good. But also prepared to travel further afield or into the city if needs be. Stu  
    • Actually far better than I anticipated.  My usual viewings from the kitchen are of the feeders that for whatever reason appear less visited.  But upstairs, and doing it for the whole hour we spotted many more species, and with the help of the bird song app saw wrens, and probably a black cap.  We caught a brief view of a small flock of long tailed tits, and were pleased to see far more gold finches than we expected, so numbers not as decimated, following sub freezing nights a few weeks ago, as thought. No sparrow hawks, probably only see one a decade, and expect that they are more interested in wood pigeons than sparrars.
