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 both an accepted bulky item at the curb and a free drop-off for Antelope Valley residents at the Antelope Valley Environmental Collection Center in Palmdale.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free on the curb as one of the four bulky item pickups a year, or free to drop at the Antelope Valley Environmental Collection Center, which the City and Los Angeles County both describe as free for Antelope Valley and county residents.
When & how
Either book a bulky item pickup at 661-947-7197, or take the material to the collection center at 1200 West City Ranch Road in Palmdale on the first or third Saturday of the month between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before it leaves the property, and keep batteries and electronic waste out of all three carts, because the trash container does not take them. Bring material in sturdy containers and expect a per trip limit at the collection center.
Book the pickup at home.wm.com/Lancaster or with customer service at 661-947-7197 at least 48 hours before the regular service day. A household with an account in good standing gets four free pickups a year of no more than four items each, and the accepted list is furniture, appliances, electronic waste, tree branches, clothing and scrap wood.
Paint, oil, batteries and other household hazardous material cannot go in the carts or on a bulky pile. Take them to the Antelope Valley Environmental Collection Center at 1200 West City Ranch Road in Palmdale on the first or third Saturday of the month between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., where Lancaster and Los Angeles County residents drop household hazardous and electronic waste free of charge within a per trip limit.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lancaster.
How much does TV removal cost in Lancaster?+
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 Lancaster?+
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.
Where can electronic waste go in Lancaster?+
Two routes are free. Electronic waste is on the City's accepted bulky item list, so it can go out on one of the four free curbside pickups a year, and it can also be dropped free at the Antelope Valley Environmental Collection Center in Palmdale, which is run jointly by Lancaster, Palmdale, CalRecycle, Los Angeles County and WM.Official guidance

Can I pick up free paint or household products?+
Yes. Los Angeles County runs a reuse center at the Antelope Valley Environmental Collection Center where residents pick up unused or partly used products dropped off there, including household cleaners, lawn and garden care and paint, free of charge, with up to five items a week per household. Nothing has to be dropped off to take an item.Official guidance
How is residential trash service billed?+
