  1. You can sell anything on Ebay!


  2. Try Freecycle.org.  There might be a group in your area.  It's a great way to give things away and get things that you might need, for free!  And keep things out of the landfills, of course!  Or you could also try to sell it on Ebay.  You never know.  It might be just what someone is looking for.

  3. ebay

  4. you could throw it in a ditch on the side of the road, a ditch is not a landfil.

  5. Freecyle

    www.freecyle.org and find your general area.  Post an ad on there and you should be able to get rid of it shortly!

  6. Give it to the one of the homeless people who're always at the exit ramp of an interstate.  Tell them, and I quote, "Here, use this to write a book about your life.  Then you won't have to be a debt to society."

  7. Free cycle it on yahoo groups.

  8. Put it on craigs list under free ,somebody wants it ,trust me!

  9. Break it up and make found art out of the pieces

  10. call or take it to a local computer recycling place. The same place where you would take old printers, monitors, etc.

  11. Take it to a pawnshop, or sell it on eBay-or you could take it to a flea market, I'm sure there is someone out there that would like to have it

  12. ooooo I want a typewriter!

  13. any salvage yard that takes old appliances will take it.

  14. Try ebay or a pawn shop. There are also alot of companies that will buy it or take it for recycling. Try google recycling companies and call around.

  15. Ebay!

  16. you can put an ad on craig's list for free, offer it for cheap or free, someone will come and get it!  I still use a typewriter at work!  Thanks for not just putting it in the trash, I hate to see usable objects go in the trash!!
