Disposal of instruments not in use anymore

Good question! Curious about what others are expected to do.

On a device that the manufacturer will not take back, I'm expected to delete any patient data/memory/results, disinfect it and disable it in some way making it unusable. Then I dispose of it in regular trash if it does not contain an internal reagent source. I don't currently have devices that do have reagents internal to the instrument but if that were the case, I'd have to schedule a pickup with our institution's Environmental Health & Safety office. 

We have a box in our maintenance department to place all electronic devices for disposal.
