I agree. If you decide to dispose of them I would do the same as is done for old and damaged flags. Burn them with ceremony. It is better than throwing them out with the rubbish.I wouldn't worry too much if they have been sitting in a corner unused for several years they have already lost any purpose and meaning that they may have once had.
If they are damaged, mildewed, etc... then I would dispose of them.
Some people believe that it is all right to recycle them, burn them or bury them. The main issue seems to be treating them with some measure of respect by wrapping them, saying a prayer over them, etc...
If they are in good condition I would box them up and donate them to a charity shop. I don't know what the policy is but my local SA stores have religious books for sale and they give away any bibles that come in free of charge.
Good luck!
