You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

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.

Electronics are accepted at the transfer station, where the county defines them as anything with a cord, from televisions and computer monitors to stereos and alarm clocks. Cathode ray tube televisions and monitors are free, and residential devices without a screen are free as well.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Electronic waste at the McFarland-Delano Transfer Station for residential loads, with cathode ray tube televisions and monitors and residential devices without a screen both listed at no charge, and residential batteries routed to a Kern County Special Waste Facility instead.
When & how
Drop the load during the site's open days, Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Household batteries and other chemically hazardous items follow a different route altogether, through a Special Waste Facility or a one-day collection event, and the Delano event is listed at the same transfer station on September 25, 2026 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Get it ready
Wipe the drive or reset the device and keep the screen whole, because the county accepts televisions and monitors as cathode ray tube electronic waste. Never put electronics in a household trash cart when a free drop-off is available, and keep batteries and other hazardous items out of the electronic load.
Kern County charges extra for an untarped or unsecured load, so tarp or tie down anything headed to the McFarland-Delano Transfer Station. At the site, stop at the gatehouse for the load check, take recyclables to the diversion area, take the rest to the transfer face, follow the speed limit signs and follow the directional arrows.
The Delano transfer station is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays
The McFarland-Delano Transfer Station opens Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., so nothing can be dropped on a Tuesday or Wednesday. Every county disposal site closes for New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, the 4th of July, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.
Only Kern County waste is accepted, and some streams are refused
Waste generated outside Kern County is refused at every county disposal site, and the transfer station will not take firearms or explosives, hazardous waste, hot ashes, liquids of any kind or non-friable asbestos. Anything out of the ordinary should be cleared with Kern County Public Works before it is loaded into a vehicle.
Household chemicals travel with limits and stay in the vehicle
A resident may carry no more than 15 gallons or 125 pounds of hazardous material per vehicle per trip, no single container may hold more than five gallons, materials must not be mixed and containers must be closed, sturdy and not leaking with the original label or a clear description of the contents. At the facility an attendant hands you a short form for your name, address and signature and removes the material from your trunk or back seat while you fill it in, and business waste is not accepted at the events.
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.
