I strong magnet can be used to wipe the information.

 

Also some document shredding companies have equipment that can shred the tapes.

They state they can securely recycle them.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Still Another Question

 

Thank you for all your helpful responses to my question about hazardous high school chemicals.  One more question has arisen:  How could an organization dispose of 300-400 videocassette tapes with sensitive information?  I was asked about chemical treatment – or burning, and would appreciate your advice.
