There's also "Second String Project," sending used strings to developing countries and poor musicians:

We have local metals recycling so mine go in a household bin and we take it to the depot whenever we visit. The attendants there tell me that they'll take any metal at all. I can't bear to see this stuff just go to the landfill. This is aside from curbside recycling pickup which we also have.
