What is your go-to resource for either disposing older computers or donating the machines? In the past we either donated them to local schools or threw them away with hard-drives removed and holes drilled through the center. Is it good practice to do this or any better ideas?

Thanks!

We donate ours to local schools where greater than 50% of the students are eligible for free/reduced lunch. We get CRA consideration for in-kind donations to predominantly LMI schools.

The FCRA has disposal requirements for these types of things. Drilling the HD is a great way of rendering it useless otherwise it needs to be carefully wiped.
