If you take it down to the beach when the tide is going out, and lob it in the sea, after about an hour you can see it bobbing about on the horizon.

Of course it gets incinerated. Where else would you put it? In big filing cabinets just in case........?! Eventually, after all efforts to trace the sender have been made, it is burnt - that's why we send it back as confidential waste. Oh and incineration usually involves fire at some point...............
