 dispose of within a few years.  Just in case no one is able
 to pick them up locally, how do you go about shipping a
 BA23?  At one point I even had one of the protected
 (with foam) shipping boxes, but no longer.  The BA23
 boxes seem just too heavy to safely ship, let alone the
 consideration  of the cost. 
I shipped a pair of SMS-1000's, which are basically a 3rd party BA23 back around 2001.
It took two or three boxes intended for PC towers, either foam or styrofoam, and a lot of
strapping tape.  I then hauled them down to the UPS Depot, and sent them out.  As I
recall, it wasn't cheap, but it got the job done.  It helped that the pair I shipped
were rack mount, not desk-side.
