These boards are low grade correct? Seems like they aren hardly worth shipping for the price. What do people normally do with them? Worth depopulating? If so, what do you take off and what does bordsort take?

Yep; low grade boards. Most people sell them to a local yard as any one of many categories; usually shred or CBM.
I personally strip midgrade and low grade boards completely. My local yards are large enough to have many classes. They pay a junk rate for whole boards but have a class for electro components higher than most junk rates.
Boardsort will buy the aluminium (al hratsinks), ICs, gold pins, any brass or copper as silver plated brass and clean copper heatsinks. And wire.

The best way to figure out what works best for you is show up at your local yard with a small power board on a day and time they are NOT busy and ask what the board is worth. And what individual components from the board they’ll pay extra for loose.
