Give them to anyone in an Old Folks home who would like a catholic statue for their room?.
 
See if there are any Catholic thrift stores in your area. They would take them and sell them to someone who wants them. You could sell them on ebay or call around and find out when the local Catholic churches have their rummage sales and donate them.

The only other way is to bury or burn them. If you know someone with a fire pit who might be willing to do it for you, that could work, or someone who might not mind them buried on their property.
 
Ask your parish priest could you leave them in the hall entrance to the church with the notice: ‘free to a good home.’

Thanks for your advice, but I have nowhere to store them. Right now there in the hallway blocking the closet door. a crematorium told me that they would cremate them for me but the cost would be $400 which I cannot afford. I love that idea, wish I could.
 
Thanks for your reply, the church I go too didn’t want them, which surprised me, but good news I found a local church that offered to take them. So I’ll be doing that.

How big are these statues? I was picturing a handful of small desk statues. Are these bigger than that?

I’m glad you found a parish that will take them. I definitely would not advocate destroying them if they are at all in usable condition.
