CD and DVD cases are a nuisance. You can cut them out of your world entirely by going with digital music and renting movies, but because I know some folks won’t give up buying CDs and others love their movies, here are some ideas about how you can recycle the cases. This is also a great space saver. You can consolidate all your discs into a folder, and ditch the bulky cases.
WHERE TO RECYCLE YOUR DISC CASES:
Some people want your old cases. In fact, some people LOVE them for projects, art creations, and other ideas. Sign up on Freecycle or Craigslist and offer your cases up for free.
You can ask around the neighborhood. Local libraries, schools, computer shops, and other non-profit organizations may be able to use your cases.
Most cities now have recycling centers that take old cases. Don’t just set them on the curb though. Recycling CD and DVD cases are different than recycling water bottles, paper, or tin foil. Ask your local center IF they allow curbside pick-up. If not visit visit Earth 911 – they have an easy and fast form you can fill in and it will locate you a center that takes old cases off your hands.
ACT Recycling accepts old CD cases and other computer media.

I was looking to get rid of about 800 cases, so far I posted them on craigslist and freecycle. I hope someone uses them I hate to throw them away.
