You can see if there is a recycler in your area, or just toss it.
Modern electronics have been cleaned up a little and leak far less heavy metals than they did in the 80's-90's. BUT! First I would freecycle it - maybe your trash is someone else's treasure.

Someone wanna drive down to my garage and get their box out of my garage while their throwing away things??? Hmm??? *looks towards kimchicowgirl*
 Actually, I have a bunch of junk that needs tossing too, I guess I should send it the recyclers as well. If only I were back home.
