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.

Electronic waste is collected through the hauler's bulky item program, and the city also runs an annual e-waste recycling and paper shredding event. The county's free household hazardous and electronic waste program is the third route.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. E-waste counts toward the one free bulky item pickup per calendar quarter for a single-family home, up to five household items per pickup. The city event and the county household hazardous and electronic waste program are free to residents, and the county program also runs permanent collection centers.
When & how
Schedule the e-waste on a bulky pickup with the hauler, take it to the city event, or use a county collection event or permanent center. The current city listing is Saturday, October 17, 2026 at the City Hall parking lot, 701 E Carson Street.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the recycling and organics carts, because the hauler treats e-waste as a bulky item instead, and keep hazardous material such as batteries and cleaning products on the county hazardous waste route rather than in a cart.
Call the hauler up to seven days before the service day and no later than noon the day before, and describe the items that will be set out. A pickup takes up to five household items, the first one each quarter is free for a single-family home, items have to be liftable by two people, and loose trash is not picked up.
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.
