Best way to dispose of contaminated furniture?

After several months of fierce battling with my parents over the

future of one insignificant but contaminated chair, I finally got the

" permission " to throw it away. (sigh)

In short, the chair is still VERY contaminated with mycotoxins and

probably with living mold spores. I would like to get rid of it, but I

would not like anyone else to take it from the garbage (and it is

bound to happen if I leave it as it is beside some trash can, since it

looks " normal " ).

I live in a building in a tightly populated town, and there are

virtually no fields or open places where one could leave contaminated

things and be sure that nobody will ever touch them. But, there is one

patch of grass field that's very close to the place I live.

At first, while I was thinking how to permanently destroy it, I got

an idea that it would be best if I took the chair to that field,

poured some grain alcohol onto it, and set it on fire (and hope that

it burns down really quickly and nobody sees me while I'm doing it -

it's certainly not illegal but people might think I'm crazy and call

the cops).

Is inceration a good method of destroying mold contaminated furniture?

I suppose fire probably won't destroy the mycotoxins, but at least

nobody will be able to use it anymore.

Or do I risk much greater misfortune, because fire might only vaporize

the mycotoxins and spread them to a much wider area?
