So, I want to dispose of a working PC loaded with W10.
It’s linked to three active accounts (mine, the wife’s, and the dog’s).

How would I “remove” them so it’s a fresh-from-pcworld machine and the new owner can start up?

Anyone undertaken this, without remotely deleting your Microsoft account?

You can reset it to factory settings. Type in 'reset this pc' in the Cortana search box and follow all instructions. At some point you will see an option 'clean the drive fully'. It will install a fresh copy of Windows.
