Actually I just bring it to Futureshop or Bureau en Gros (Staples) and they give it to a group who will determine if my electronics can be reused or just shredded so they can recuperate the various heavy metals. I have 5 computers from the 90's that I have saved up that likely have no modern use so they will be shedded.
Yeah, the data is sensitive since I used my laptop for my office also. So any client information is privileged and needs to be rendered unreadable. I guess I could damage the disk and it will just be pre-shredded.

I would suggest just destroying the HDD, or physically damaging it with a screwdriver, etc. The electronics can then be sent for recovery of heavy metals.
