are they the peanuts or the chucks....assumingly it is the chucks.
UPS stores used to take them...but they stopped....atleast mine did. I know there are still some places that take them.........but there don't seem to be a lot.
You might advertise them for free. I know some people have use for that type of stuff. For instance one time when I was taking my styrofoam into the UPS store, a guy stopped me in the parking lot and asked if he could have it because he did a lot of shipping and it kept him from having to buy it. I should have gotten that dudes number so I could continue to get them to him. Although the bad part is that they would eventually find their way to the dump.
I give mine to the local school....they have a recycling room. They use them for activities such as hammering golf tees into it with a play hammer.
Also if you have kids or know someone that does that would appreciate it, you could make a play work bench/table out of it.....meaning they could pretend to build stuff out of it using golf tees as nails.
