| Jan 27, 2021 at 18:34 | comment | added | RustyShackleford | No response yet. There's a local place that takes junk that artists might could use, and I think they'll take 'em. I'm going to save 10 each of the 80-slide and 140-slide sizes (in the conveniently sized boxes that we shipped 'em in). | |

| Jan 23, 2021 at 19:38 | comment | added | emmit | Save them to sell on eBay. Someone will NEED them at some point, and you’ll be one of the few suppliers/upcyclers around. Sharing old technology is pretty important. | |
| Jan 22, 2021 at 19:26 | comment | added | xiota | While it is something some photographers might have insight on dealing with, it's not something photographers would be expected to have expertise in. Another option is to put up a "for free" listing on craigslist or equivalent. Maybe someone could use them in a DIY project or something. | |
| Jan 22, 2021 at 18:53 | comment | added | RustyShackleford | @xiota Whatever. I imagined this was a question that photographers might have some insight on. Thanks to others for the helpful answers. | |

| Jan 22, 2021 at 3:39 | comment | added | RustyShackleford | Yeah, I am discarding most of them. There are 5-10,000 of them. I'm doing pretty decent scans, 4000dpi/48bits on a Nikon film scanner; reduce to 8bits/channel after fixing levels and some light USM'ing. Understand that most of these are "snapshot" quality - not very sharp, sometimes blurred, and fairly uninteresting - probably of virtually no interest to anyone except me and my only surviving sibling. I AM saving the ones that seem particularly special. | |
| Jan 22, 2021 at 3:36 | comment | added | RustyShackleford | Oh that's a good idea - similar type plastics I imagine. | |
| Jan 22, 2021 at 1:18 | comment | added | xiota | @RustyShackleford Maybe they can be disposed of as electronic waste? I hope you're not discarding the slides after scanning. | |

| Jan 21, 2021 at 23:52 | comment | added | osullic | This isn't really a photographic problem. You have some waste to get rid of. I would suggest asking your local municipal waste authority how to discard of them. Unless a charity/thrift shop will take them? Reuse and recycling are good...but sometimes we're left with no alternatives. | |
| Jan 21, 2021 at 23:39 | comment | added | RustyShackleford | You'd think this question had been asked many many times, but I searched ... | |
