Where in NJ are you? I think either Second Life Bikes in Asbury or the Boys & Girls Club Bike Exchange in Trenton or Plainfield would help take all that stuff. Second Life started as "the Bike Church" and the shop funds kids learning to make repairs and fixing up a bike for themselves. I think the Boy & Girls Club is similar. I know Second Life Bikes will flip the low end stuff to hipsters.
