    You can also list them on OfferUp. Keep in mind you most likely will not get top dollar for them.  Also, if you're planning on selling them you will have to uninstall them as opposed to demolishing them which will cause the demolition phase of your remodel to move slower and will potentially cost more.

    FB marketplace, Offer up, and Craigslist are probably your best options. Used cabinets can be tricky to sell because they're usually designed for a specific layout, so unless you find someone with the exact same floorplan you'll probably have to mark them down quite a bit.

    The other option would be to donate them to a nonprofit like the Habitat Restore. While you don't get paid, you will save a little money on dumping fees and you can use the donation as a tax write off at the end of the year. Keep in mind these places only accept cabinets that are in good condition.

    All ideas mentioned are good sites to sell/donate items.  I have also had luck on Nextdoor (if you are a member of the site).  Good luck!

    There are carpenters that purchase this secondhand and refurbish them. Get someone local on the phone.

    If you can't get rid of them, check if you have a "habitat for humanity- ReStore" near you. Great place to donate stuff. More specifically than general marketplace join local FB investor groups and should have success there as well.

    Built-in cabinet are much more complex to install then the prefab. So they will need a master carpenter to install i would talk to a couple carpenters and see what they think. They might have a job where they make sense. By the way getting them out without damaging them is a job all in it self.
