I had to do the same thing when I sold my home in the SF Bay area. I had over 6000 titles. Most of them from Satellite broadcast off of my Big Dish from the early 80's and later on in to the 90's before I got a DVD recorder.
I tried to back up as much as I could but I just didn't have enough time. I gave away what I could but most of it went to a recycle center that had a special drop box for magnetic media. The sad part was some of the stuff was raw footage from live broadcast news and sporting events. The back haul feeds to the networks. When the networks would cut away for commercials the camera and mike was still on and sending the signal to the networks. You would see hear all kinds of things that were not meant for public viewing. I hope your stuff finds a good home and the good stuff ends up on the spleen!
