Old Equipment Recycling

What do you guys do with all your old gear?

I have two bags full of goalie and player gear. The majority of the items aren't in good enough shape to be resold or donated without major work. Pants with huge rips; C/A's being held together with safety pins; helmets without CSA/HECC stickers (I "borrowed" them) that have bent cages or scratched-to-hell visors. Player gloves with rips on the outside and horrible palms. This kind of stuff.

The skates could probably be re-used, as well as an old blocker and trapper. And the minimalist shoulder pads seem to be really popular in the beer leagues, if I'd put fresh velcro on the straps. The rest of the stuff...

Donate it for kids to wear? Recycle it for some other use (e.g. extreme sports protection)? Just toss it away?
