[Fredslist] How do you get rid of an old computer?

Tue May 4 15:05:59 EDT 2010

At today's Gotham Real Estate meeting, Fred asked "I have an old computer in my basement.  How do I get rid of it without compromising my privacy"?

The answer is simple:

1) Pull out the hard drive and fedex it to:

EScrap Destruction
Attn: Matther Skidell
4 Oval Drive
Islandia, NY 11749
(631) 348-8801

They will turn your harddrive into dust for $10 per drive.

2) Put the computer (sans harddrive) out for recycling.

-----

3) If your company or building is junking 50+ units (computers, monitors, printers, etc), eScrap can send a truck out for a free pickup - so you save on fedex/ups fees.
