| How to dispose of an old computer?? Does anyone know how I would dispose of an old laptop? I don't know what to do with it to avoid the possibility that it could get into the wrong hands (although I don't know what they would do other than log into my various online accounts or take my vacation photos). It doesn't even turn on anymore, so donating it to be reused isn't an option.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Here's a site with some tips, such as how to remove the hard drive. I know they don't like them in land fields because of some of the hazardous material used in them. FYI: How to Dispose of Computer Equipment

| This is a good question. I've always wandered what you're supposed to do with computers when you're ready to throw them out. My parents have one sitting in their spare bedroom that they need to get rid of...
