I'd create a new worksheet and copy all the data into one column. Then I'd use
data|filter|Advanced filter to extract just the unique records.

Debra Dalgleish explains the data|filter|advanced filter stuff at:

If your combined list is too large, you can use advanced filter on each column
and then merge those unique records together and do one more advanced filter.

I have similar data in multiple columns and I want to filter on all
columsn togather to get unique values. Is there a good way to do so.
