Is there anything I can do with these windows besides throw them away?

A lot of people would be interested in purchasing them. Try listing them on Craigslist in your area. We were just in the market for some here for a shed we are building and couldn't find any used so we had to purchase new.
If you are a crafty sort of person, you can also use them around your garden. I used a product called Liquid Stained glass on some old windows copied a pattern and filled it in with this product. Then I used the window with some old shutters and a window box to dress up a very ugly, plain wall.

It is not legal to us aluminum in new construction. So, break the glass and recycle the frames. Good luck with those vinyl windows and call an Andersen dealer in 3 years when they start to fail.

Donate them to Habitat for Humanity. They operate salvage yards with recycled and new building materials. While your there you'll probably spend more money than you will get for the windows. Leave the checkbook at home, or answer to the wife.

You can recycle them or try to sell them depending on their condition. We replaced our old wood windows and I used them for a craft project. I cleaned them up, painted the frames, attached them together and created a room divider. Haven't found anyone that didn't like it. I also know people that paint designs on the actual windows.

Check your local Goodwill store, or see if you can donate to Habitat for Humanity.

Scrap metal. Don't know if they'll take the glass though.
