You’ll know when it’s gone.
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.

Television sets and television and VCR combinations are eligible for the free scheduled e-waste pickup, and they cannot go in the trash or the bulky pile unscheduled.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The scheduled e-waste pickup is free with Republic Services, but items are not collected without scheduling and the city states that a homeowner who sets them out unscheduled is subject to a fine.
When & how
Schedule the pickup with Republic Services at 800-299-4898 or alhambra@republicservices.com, then place the set out after noon on the day before collection and by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day.
Get it ready
Label each item with a sticker or label marked with your address, no name or phone number needed, and keep the screen out of the black trash container and the blue recycling container.
Electronics and appliances require a scheduled pickup before they go out. Call or email Republic Services, place the items after noon on the day before collection and by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day, and label every item with a sticker showing your address, since items set out without an appointment are not collected and the city states the homeowner is subject to a fine.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
Televisions, monitors, computers, printers, scanners, cell phones, small electronics and large appliances.
Cost & conditions

Refrigerant-containing appliances such as older refrigerators, freezers and air conditioning units need the refrigerant removed before pickup, and universal waste such as fluorescent tubes and mercury devices is refused here and goes to a household hazardous waste event or a S.A.F.E. center.
Los Angeles County household hazardous waste events
Paint, solvents, automotive products, flammables, electronics, batteries, used motor oil, and home-generated sharps and medications.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The county collection events are free to attend, with a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per vehicle and no business waste.
Arrange it
Attend a scheduled county event, generally on a Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with the material in its original container in a sturdy box in the trunk. The annual event in Alhambra is typically held in August at the LA County Public Works Headquarters, 900 Fremont Ave, and the 2026 date was Aug. 29. Call 800-238-0173 or email info@lacsd.org for the current list.
Tires, explosives, ammunition and radioactive materials are refused, materials must not be mixed, and no waste from businesses is accepted.
Alhambra's curbside routes cover most things: furniture, mattresses and bundled material go out on the bulky sweep, and electronics and appliances ride the scheduled pickup. Self-haul matters for the material the city refuses. Paint, solvents, automotive products, batteries and sharps go to a Los Angeles County household hazardous waste event, which is free with a 15 gallon or 125 pound limit per vehicle, or to the LA/Glendale S.A.F.E. Collection Center on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., while construction and demolition material goes to a certified construction recycler or into a rented bin ordered through the hauler.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Alhambra.
How much does TV removal cost in Alhambra?+
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 Alhambra?+
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.
How do I get rid of a television in Alhambra?+
Schedule a free e-waste pickup with Republic Services at 800-299-4898 or alhambra@republicservices.com and tell them the item is a television. Put it out after noon the day before collection and by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day, labelled with your address, or take it to a county household hazardous waste event or a S.A.F.E. collection center.Official guidance
Is bulky item pickup free in Alhambra?+
Yes for a normal household pile. Six or fewer bulky items go out on your trash collection day at no cost and with no call needed, a pile larger than six items is scheduled with Republic Services, and a high-volume load may need roll-off service, which is charged. The scheduled e-waste and appliance pickup is also free but must be booked first.Official guidance
Where do paint, oil and batteries go in Alhambra?+
They cannot go in the garbage, the bulky pile or a storm drain. Take them to a Los Angeles County household hazardous waste collection event, generally on a Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and free to attend with a 15 gallon or 125 pound limit per vehicle, or to a S.A.F.E. collection center such as the LA/Glendale center on Colorado Blvd. The annual county event in Alhambra is usually in August.Official guidance
When is my trash collected and what delays it?+
Republic Services collects on the schedule shown on the city street map, and a holiday creates a one-day delay for the rest of that week. The observed holidays are New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day, and a holiday falling on a Saturday causes no delay.Official guidance
