Picking up on Glenn's thought, there's an old joke with people who
live in Manhattan (NYC of course). If you REALLY want to get rid of
something, wrap it up in nice paper, put it in a Tiffany's shopping
bag, and leave it on the back seat of your unattended car, preferably
unlocked to avoid glass damage.

It works.

In lieu of that, just put in on the curb for a few days and see what
happens. There ARE people looking for these things.

In my starving student days (early 70s), my roommate was one of those
people. He very comfortably outfitted our apartment with beautifully
rich wall-to-wall, convertable couch, a couple chairs, tables, lamps,
kitchen ware.... He was amazing, as was the quality of the stuff tossed
out for slight imperfections. Our stuff moved down the food chain in
much the same way.
