Ask HN: What to do with a pallet of old electronics equipment

Long story short I am left with cleaning up a hoarders house.<p>I have two pallets of old electronics and equipment. I believe most of the hardware is all for arcade equipment of various types. It’s kind of obscure and very obsolete hardware so it really just appears to be “junk”. I know if there’s one place I can ask for knowledge of old hardware it’d be here though.<p>I have no idea what to do with this stuff and I have a some what limited timeframe to either put it into storage, sell it, or it unfortunately ends up in a landfill. It’s all located in a pretty rural area so there’s no easy way to get this to an electronics recycling place like I’ve seen where I live.<p>Lets begin,<p>There’s boxes and boxes of brand new individually wrapped DVI and VGA and AUX cables. Like hundreds of these. There’s a couple dozen old flat panel screens that I believe are used in video arcade machines. A couple dozen large trackball devices, the kind that I think you’d see on like a golf arcade game I suspect.<p>What led me to realize it’s all arcade equipment was a box of DVD disks for SEGA Transformers Human Alliance, which appears to be an arcade game.<p>Then I found a couple boxes of motherboards with CYE chips in them and that company appears to make claw machine electronic hardware.<p>There are a bunch of plastic tubes that contain like eprom type chips but they’re blank, empty in the middle, but just as many that are complete too. I’m unsure what the proper names of these are. Some have years on them 1990.<p>Then there’s almost a 1000 brand new Intel chips. They’re old of course (2004) but these seem the most promising, intel Celeron D 335 SL8HM 2.8ghz&#x2F;256&#x2F;533<p>The amount of stuff I’m dealing with is overwhelming and I’d hate to just toss all of this stuff in a landfill if there was a real use for it, but if there’s one place someone would know something it’d be here.
