I have to ask....... Would you put it on the bin for the dustmen once it was smashed up?I’d be removing the hard drive and smacking it with a sledgehammer. Recycle the remainder.
I soak it in bleach and water for a few days and then bin itI have to ask....... Would you put it on the bin for the dustmen once it was smashed up?
I give mine to a trusted business, a friend of mine knows someone who recycles them, he destroys the harddrive which has the data then recycles or reuses what he canWhat would you do with old broken computers that still have your data on them?

That's just it, I wouldn't trust anyone. I've decided to destroy the hard drive and recycle the computers without itI give mine to a trusted business, a friend of mine knows someone who recycles them, he destroys the harddrive which has the data then recycles or reuses what he can
If it's a good reputation company then they shouldn't access your data
If I were your neighbour I would be taking it up with the Landlord (or if it was rented through an agent, contact them). They should be able to get someone in to look at ways of resolving the damp problem. Bleaching it won't fix it, it will only temporarily get rid of it. Obviously your neighbour needs to ventilate the place but really they should be taking it up with the Landlord.Mould question. My neighbour has just moved in and, being young and very naieve has no idea about bills or anything really. They don’t understand that the bills will add at least £300 a month to their rent which went up by £150 a month before they moved in. The heater only works over night. WiFi isn’t provided etc.
So their flat has a massive black mold problem (it can be seen other side of street) - last tenant put in hospital due to it sort of problem. Before they showed people around the mouldy curtains were replaced and the place bleached within a inch of its life, furniture binned and everything painted (two weeks ago) yet already the shadow of black mould can be seen..
They’ve blocked the air vents and the landlords thick heavy duty curtains means theres no air flow, which seems to me to be a big problem (well apart from the single glazing kitchen windows, the ill fitting main window 3 inch gap between window and window ledge..) with mould but maybe I’m wrong? They’ve really taken advantage, lying about the cost of bills. He’s has signed to take responsibility of the gardens as well..
The landlord (who owns agency) won’t do anything. They didn’t after the last tenant ended up in hospital just said she must have been drying clothes in there and took money from deposit to ‘fix it’If I were your neighbour I would be taking it up with the Landlord (or if it was rented through an agent, contact them).

The sledgehammer idea, while funny, definitely has merit. One thing you can do is tear the computer apart, take out the harddrive, and recycle the rest. If it still turns on, you can wipe the drive with a tool like CCleaner which will run over the whole disk flipping all bits to 0. This is especially important for HDDs - Fragmentation often meant you could recover bits of data from disk sectors that were set as "free for overwrite" that weren't yet overwritten.What would you do with old broken computers that still have your data on them?
