Disposing of routers

Riding proudly on the wave of good intentions sorting through one's possessions these last 2 weeks, one has come across a few pieces of electronic equipment for the local dump, where they have a sub-section for old broken electrical things. Now I know that hard drives need to be destroyed/properly wiped to preserve a level of security, but what of old routers, both wifi enabled and non ? Should I format them in some way or simply whack them satisfyingly with a stout hammer ?
