Sell them on a marketplace like Facebook/ebay/etc. Or trash depends on the quality they are in.
I always have only one apple case per iPhone. I sell the phone every year and keep the case as a souvenir.

I can relate to this.
When I first got my iPhone SE, I obviously ended up collecting the most cases.
I had like 45-50 cases, many name brand ones.
When it was time for me to upgrade to the iPhone 7, I decided to dispose of the old cases. I put the ones that were damaged or broken in the trash, and I sold the ones that I never used or lightly used, or that were still in good condition, at a garage sale, donated to a charity shop, or gave them away to a friend who still had an iPhone SE.
I had a lot of H&M cases for the iPhone SE space grey, but after I got the iPhone 7, I gave those old cases away to an old friend at my school who still had a rose gold SE. She liked them.
The last three iPhones up to my current 15 pro I kept the collection small and I only get a case of one of them break or yellow out, or if there’s a sale on them. Only kept like 6 cases for my 15 pro, and the least was 2 with the iPhone XR (only had it for a year while waiting for the 15 pro to drop in price)
Most of the time I give them away to friends that have the device. I've been slowing down on buying cases though lately.
Have been hoarding ever since iPhone X. Every case has a memory with it as it lived with me through that year. It's hard to give it up. It's also hard for me to let go of the phone, makes me sad for sometime but I get over it lol.
