I'd strip them and try to sell the mb, ram, processor separately on eBay or similar where you might get someone wanting some old parts compatible with their machine for a repair.
The HDDs might get you a small amount as well for someone wanting some cheap storage or a cctv system storage etc.0 -
Thankyou Oli, however, I am not very dextrous and do not feel comfortable taking computers apart! Maybe I should ask my friend, whose worked with computers for years to do it for me.0

Just take them to the dump/recycling centre and free up some space. Maybe drill through the hard disks if you're worried about security.0

Agree with above posters. I have tried offering mine on Freecycle without any response.0
