What do you do with your old suitcases?

Over the last couple of decades, twice I have been overseas when I experienced a problem with my suitcase and decided to replace. In each case housekeeping staff were very happy to grab the old one and take it home. I have no idea what they intend to use them for. Maybe repair and sell. Maybe repair and use. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
 
Plenty of luggage repair places around, and well worth the effort to track them down, many operating little stores or from home.

I have never really thought about it, but then over the years, I think I have only had a couple that have reached what I would call end of life. I think it's pretty minor compared to other the other rubbish I dispose of.
