21 large boxes full. Some v new, some older but basically all literary classics.
So far, local hospixe has said they will charge £500 to come and collect (it's a 2 hour round trip for them).
What else can I do with them?
(I have a condition whereby I'm advised not to lift over 15kg as well so makes it tricky)

I think it will be tricky with that amount, but you could try Freecycle - someone might want them. Alternatively you could try Ziffit...

Bookselling app? May only get 20p for some of them, but they collect.

Do you have an Oxfam bookshop? I took my late dad's collection there and they took a max of 6 bags a day. We took many bags!
