The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.
The new laptop is working. The old monitor, tower and printer are still taking up a corner. Give the equipment you no longer use a pickup day, with the price settled before anyone arrives.
An exact price for your actual items.
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.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Prepare your devices and have them outside before pickup.
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.

Electronic waste such as televisions, computer monitors and mobile phones is accepted with the bulky appointment when the smaller devices are boxed together.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the one bulky waste appointment every twelve months for five cubic yards of acceptable items, with electronic waste placed to one side of the pile; extra volume and extra appointments are charged at current rates.
When & how
Say when booking that you have electronic waste, then put it to one side of the bulky pile so the crew can collect it separately.
Get it ready
Box smaller devices together, keep the screens whole, and remember that products with embedded or built-in batteries are not accepted at the hazardous waste drop-off and have to go to an electronic waste programme such as Kiefer Landfill or the North Area Recovery Station. Remove loose batteries and tape their terminals before disposal.
Set appliances, electronics, tubes, trimmings and tires to one side
Appliances, electronic waste, fluorescent tubes, lumber and tree trimmings and up to four tires go to one side of the bulky material and may be collected by a different truck, so say when booking that you have them. Tubes are limited to four feet with no ballasts, trimmings to four inches wide and five feet long with no treated wood, and tires to four with rims allowed.
Keep hazardous waste and cart material out of the pile
Batteries, chemicals, oil, paint, propane tanks and fluorescent ballasts are refused on the bulky route and go to a household hazardous waste drop-off instead, where the county takes up to 15 gallons or 125 pounds per month at no fee. Anything that belongs in the garbage, organics or recycling cart stays out of the pile, along with liquids, glass panes, hot ashes and business waste.
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.

Book the yearly bulky waste appointment
Unincorporated-area addresses with furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronic waste, trimmings, up to four tires or other acceptable bulky material inside five cubic yards.
Cost & conditions
No charge. One appointment for five cubic yards every twelve months is included in the standard residential curbside collection service for the unincorporated area, and the twelve month period starts when the service is used. Extra volume costs more, fifteen cubic yards is the maximum for one pickup, and further appointments are charged.
Arrange it
Book the appointment with the county at 916-875-5555 or through the county app, declare any appliances, electronic waste, tubes, trimmings or tires, then put the pile out for the scheduled day.
Business waste, concrete, dirt, rocks, bricks, stumps, heavy objects, glass panes and mirrors, hot ashes, hazardous waste, liquids, cart material and treated wood are refused.

Carmichael's bulky route is the county's yearly appointment: one pickup every twelve months for five cubic yards of acceptable material, with furniture, mattresses and cut-down spas named, and with appliances, electronic waste, fluorescent tubes, trimmings and up to four tires set to one side and declared when booking. Everything the appointment refuses has a county facility behind it: the North Area Recovery Station at 4450 Roseville Road and Kiefer Landfill at 12701 Kiefer Blvd. both take household waste, some recyclables, hard-to-handle items and construction debris, they charge gate fees on schedules published separately, they ask that loads be covered and secured because that is the law, and they require fluids and removable batteries to come out first. Hazardous material goes to the drop-off facility on the Roseville Road site, which takes up to 15 gallons or 125 pounds a month at no fee, while products with built-in batteries have to go to an electronic waste programme instead.
