Original Note:
Not all solar panels are considered toxic as waste. Those that are are regulated in many states. In solar farms, the most common type is the least toxic type. But regardless, there would be value in recycling the damaged panels. Hail damage would be a rarity in any case. https://www.epa.gov/hw/end-life-solar-panels-regulations-and-management https://www.epa.gov/hw/improving-recycling-and-management-renewable-energy-wastes-universal-waste-regulations-solar
