The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

Choose each device and see the total online. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. No visit just to find out the price.
A day to get it done.

Updates through the handoff.
Get a booking confirmation, a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. Your retired equipment is one less thing to keep track of.
A separate monitor and tower count separately. Small devices and cables have their own box option. Choose what is actually leaving so your price matches the pickup.
Monitor, desktop or laptop.
Choose Computer monitor for each separate display. Desktop computer covers one tower or one all-in-one computer. A laptop is its own item. Add only the devices going.
Printer or office copier.
A printer with a built-in scanner belongs under Printer. A floor-standing copy machine belongs under Office copier. The shape matters more than the brand.
A box of smaller electronics.
Use Box of electronics for small devices, cables and chargers together in one box. For a large or heavy box, unusual contents or separate batteries, send a photo and confirm the fit before booking.

Televisions, computer monitors, printers, copiers, phones, laptops, drives, cables, stereos and consoles are accepted for residents, both in a bulky appointment and free at the two county facilities.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residents pay no fee for electronic waste at Kiefer Landfill and the North Area Recovery Station, where only residential copiers are accepted free, and electronics ride in the annual bulky appointment at no separate charge. Business loads follow the commercial hazardous waste program instead.
When & how
Tell the county about e-waste when you schedule a bulky appointment, or drop it off during facility hours in the designated recycling area, and take anything with a built-in battery to an e-waste program rather than to a landfill area.
Get it ready
Group smaller devices in a cardboard box, keep televisions and monitors separate from the rest of the pile, erase personal data before drop-off, and remove fluids and removable batteries so the batteries and fluids can go to a household hazardous waste center. Electronics never belong in the garbage, organics or recycling cart.
Nothing bulky is collected on the ordinary cart schedule. Call 916-875-5555 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on a weekday, use the online request form or the SacGreenTeam app, wait for the appointment, and set the pile out by 6 a.m. no more than 24 hours before that day.
Six feet from objects and 14.5 feet of overhead clearance
Keep the pile in front of the property line on the same side of the street, one foot from the curb or pavement edge on a flat hard surface, six feet from cars, mailboxes, fences, poles and basketball hoops, and out from under tree limbs, wires and low awnings. Never block a sidewalk, traffic lane or gutter.
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.
