They are on the list to do this week with my kids.
If you have or know any little ones, you could glue them into castles, walls and treehouses on stilts. You might have put stabilizing feet of some kind on them. Or notch them and make a giant set of Lincoln logs. Google if you've never heard of them.
If you are a crafter you can use them by putting them together side by side and making a wall unit to store pens, markers, glue,any utensils that you use in crafting.
If some are tall enough, glue them together vertically,top with glass and you have an end table you could finish or leave natural depending on your style.
depending on size if you have a cat you could make cat scratching poles by adding off cuts of carpet to them. I keep all my tubes and make paper mache animals like giraffes elephants, cow's, horses etc out of them. I also made a flying pig from a 3inch diameter roll which I cut to 6 inches lengthwise I used 2 toilet rolls cut in half for the legs made the wings with wire and the tail from wire. I used masking tape to keep wings and tails shape then paper mache all over the whole thing 3 layers then made a harness out of felt to hang it from the ceiling
If you have the very large ones you get from carpet rolls etc you can make a cat stand out of them for cat's to climb on
