Used breast pump...what do I do with it??

Hello Moms...I have a used Medela Pump In Style that I need to get rid of, and Googling used breast pumps delivered information that basically said giving a used breast pump to someone else to use is a really bad idea. That said, I've no idea what to do with this thing. Do I put it on the curb? Seems a waste to let it go to a landfill. Does anyone know if any part of the pump can be recycled?

I used a "used" model from my sister-in-law. All you really need to do is replace all the tubing and breast attachments, which you can buy online from the manufacturer. Essentially the motor hasn't been touched.

I sold my Medela Breast Pump online. I paid $250 and sold it for $75. Great deal! Completely sterile if you replace the tubes and bottles.
