Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the job is done. With your TV outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home for pickup.
The TV’s type and size determine which item to choose. A new model and an old model can use the same option if their shape and screen size match.
Flat-screen TVs
Measure the screen diagonally, corner to corner, without the frame. Choose under 42 inches or 42 inches and larger. A TV measuring exactly 42 inches belongs to the larger option.
Tube TVs
An older tube or CRT television has curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Choose Tube TV even if its screen is small. A rear-projection TV is different; send a photo before booking so we can check the fit.
TV stands and other electronics
The TV price covers the television. Add a media console, computer monitor or other item separately if it is going too. Choose only what you want removed and review the combined price.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Surprise.
How much does TV removal cost in Surprise?+
A flat-screen TV under 42 inches is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Larger flat screens and tube TVs have their own prices. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Choose the type that matches your TV and review your total, including any applicable tax, before payment.
Can I get same-day TV pickup in Surprise?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates offered at checkout and have the TV outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done.
Will Dropcurb remove my TV from the wall or carry it downstairs?+
You arrange unmounting, disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Dropcurb starts at an accessible outdoor location, where we load your TV and take it away. If you need help removing a mounted TV or moving a heavy tube TV outside, arrange that separately before your pickup day.
Do you pick up old tube or CRT televisions?+
Yes. Choose Tube TV for an older television with curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Its price is $249 as the first item and $249 as an additional item. A rear-projection television is a different item; send a photo before booking rather than choosing the tube-TV option.
Does my old TV have to work?+
Your TV does not need to turn on for removal. Choose its type and size and arrange to have it outside before pickup. A non-working TV and a TV with exposed broken glass are different situations; send a photo of unusual damage so we can confirm the plan before you book.
Where do old televisions and computers go in Surprise?+
Into an electronic household hazardous waste pickup, which is scheduled separately from the other hazardous material appointment and only runs from February through November. Flat screen televisions, computers and cell phones are on the accepted list, box televisions are refused, and the packages go in labeled boxes no larger than sixteen by sixteen by twelve inches on the driveway against the garage by 6 a.m.Official guidance
How do I get rid of a couch or a mattress in Surprise?+
A couch is a household item and rides the free bulk trash pile, inside the ten cubic yard pickup limit and the twenty cubic yard annual allowance, placed against the gutter at least ten feet from any fixed object. A mattress is not named on the city's bulk or refused lists, so call the Solid Waste Department and confirm the piece before it goes out.Official guidance
Are appliances collected with the bulk pile?+
No, they need their own appointment. Stoves, washers, dryers, refrigerators, trash compactors, air conditioners and empty water heaters are removed by appointment for a published per pickup charge billed to the utility account, and the bulk crew will not take one without that appointment.Official guidance
How do paint and chemicals leave a Surprise home?+
By a driveway pickup scheduled from February through November, with the electronic items scheduled separately. Everything goes in labeled, secured boxes no larger than sixteen by sixteen by twelve inches, at most four boxes per household, placed against the garage by 6 a.m. on the appointment date, and never at the curbside. Tires, box televisions, mercury, sulfuric acid, vape pens, ammunition and commercial or bio medical waste are refused.Official guidance
Is the blue recycling can still collected?+
Yes. Garbage and recycling are collected on the same day each week and both cans go out by 6 a.m., while the city's drop off recycling services are suspended after a fire at the hauler's recycling facility, so residents are asked to keep using the blue curbside can until the department says otherwise.Official guidance
What does Surprise refuse in the bulk pile?+
Household garbage and food waste, branches over four feet, construction or demolition debris of twenty five pounds or more or longer than four feet and any contractor debris, dirt, rocks, concrete, blocks, bricks, roofing material, metal or car parts over twenty five pounds or longer than four feet, glass such as windows and mirrors, batteries and hazardous materials. The city directs the refused heavy and construction material to a private hauler.Official guidance
