“What’s the best way to get rid of old LPs?”
Oh Betty
Your question made me go down memory lane. I cherished all my LPs growing up and starting in college, lugged them to every apartment that I lived in. Finally, a few years ago, I made the huge decision to let go of the LPs. I donated them to a friend who was a music writer and aficionado and I was happy that they went to a good home.
For you Betty, ask yourself if it is important that you make money on letting go of your LPs. If it is, then go to ebay.com and list your each of your vinyl collection. This will be somewhat time-consuming but will generate some cash. You can get a sense of what other sellers are charging for their LPs. 
The other option is to give them away for free. Believe it or not, there is renewed interest in owning vinyl and turntables. So there is probably a “need” for your old LPs. You could list your collection for free on Craigslist.org or FreeCycle.org. I would suggest that you that you insist that the LPs go as a collection (in other words, no cherry picking.) Please make sure that you take the necessary precautions and have someone else be there when the prospective “buyer” shows up at your home to pick up his/her new treasures.
Good luck Miss Betty,
