Q. (Do you have to save articles of Torah…) How about the discarded proof prints from a printing shop?

A. See above question regarding newspapers and magazines. Meshiv Dovor (2: 80) maintains that one could even burn or destroy those proof-prints since they were from the onset printed not for keeping but to be disposed off. Destroying them will prevent their constant desecration while becoming litter on the streets or dumps.

Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit”a advises that if they have Hashem’s names or psukim they should preferably be buried. When this is difficult they could be disposed off as with newspapers and magazines, mentioned above.
