How does one dispose of a bowling balls that can no longer be used? Just in your normal garbage? If so, i don't feel comfortable doing that. Lol. I have like 6 balls cracked all the way around the ball.

Put out with trash pick up for all things other then garbage such as yard waste and junk.
-
I put mine out in the yard

Pigs love to play with them!
-
We usually just toss them in the regular trash. One per week if we have more than one. Also threw one away in a trash can at the bowling center one time [I hated the ball so much I couldn't wait to dispose of it...after two drillings and multiple surface changes it never gave me the reaction I wanted]
-
regular garbage, lawn decorations, or in the pond by the house.
-
Have a few beers and ride around in the country throwing them at mail boxes. ;D
-
Paint them gold or silver and put in landscaping with the holes down.

Here people leave their old balls at one of the bowling alleys.
One of the 2 here in my hometown gets the most used balls. The other has a few too, but not as many as the other one.
I've left one Slingshot there.
I might leave the Sinister there too. I've gotten new grips on the balls I use, and the Sinister is one pound lighter than those 3 too. I was thinking I could keep the ball in case some young guys want to be a member of the club I'm in, but since I don't like the Sinister, I don't feel that it's right to give it to someone else like that. Though if they were to sand it, then it might hook like it should again.

Local Zoo?

Honestly
.. eBay.
Most of the time it would be less hassle and cheaper just to throw in the trash.

I rarely sell any used balls on eBay anymore. Run it a few times on Craigslist. No shipping, no paypal or eBay fees.

I've been donating used balls to the local high school teams as of late through my PSO. She plugs/resurfaces them and then it helps grow the sport by allowing kids who may have a tougher time affording equipment the chance to throw newer stuff. It's a good way to pass it on and give back.

Id like to donate them but they are cracked all the way around and useless. I tried before to give centers that have hs bowling in them and the house refused (these were in great shape and only needed plug and redrill) I even tried a few pro shops to just give it to them and they also declined for which i understood that part.
-
i honesty throw mine in a bonfire in my back yard...usually leaves just the core and then ill chuck that
-
If you're serious, with the way equipment is made, wouldn't putting one in the fire cause a safety/health hazzard?

probably but i just kinda toss them in with the rest of the burnables and then just keep an eye on it, it doesnt really burn as much as melt so theres not really a whole of smoke..
-
I throw them in the regular trash...I can always tell when it gets picked up in the morning!!
-
If there not damaged, I try to sell them. Bowling alley house ball rack is a great place. Dumpster at work is the last resort.
-
Got rid of them by leaving them for the garbage truck to take. Left them on the side of the can. Don't know if they took them or someone else did but they are finally gone!!

I have a huge Doberman. When she stays outside in nice weather, I put old/cracked stuff in the pen. She plays with them all day long.
