Old computer, spare monitor, printer that’s ready to go, gone from the curb. Choose your electronics, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
Keep the setup you use. Clear out the one you don’t.
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.

Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Add a location photo and access notes. You arrange any carrying from inside your home or building; we load and take away the prepared items outside.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Televisions and computer monitors are refused on the bulky item list and electronic waste is refused at the city's hazardous waste events, so the city has to confirm the route.
City cost & eligibility
Modesto publishes no electronic waste drop-off or pickup on these pages, and electronic waste is refused at the city hazardous waste events. Confirm the current route and any charge with the Solid Waste Division at 209-577-5494 or the county facility at (209) 525-6789 before loading.
When & how
Call the Solid Waste Division at 209-577-5494 to confirm where a television, monitor or computer goes before setting anything out, because the bulky appointment and the hazardous waste events both refuse it.
Get it ready
Never put a television, computer monitor or plate glass into a bulky pile, because the unacceptable list names them, and never put electronic waste into a hazardous waste event load, because that list refuses it too. Wipe or reset anything that stores data before it leaves the property.
The acceptable list covers air conditioners, doors and ladders, exercise equipment and bicycles, plastic or fake Christmas trees, large appliances with all doors removed, mattresses, couches and chairs, patio furniture and barbecues with the propane tank removed, tables and desks, toilets, sinks, tubs and hot tubs, and water heaters and water softeners. The unacceptable list covers concrete and asphalt, construction and demolition debris, wood and yard waste, dead animals, hazardous waste, chemicals and toxic materials, household garbage, business items, liquids, paints and solvents, plate glass, televisions and computer monitors, and tires and automobile parts.
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.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Modesto.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Modesto?+
A computer monitor is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Choose the actual devices and quantities to see your combined price online. A separate desktop tower and monitor are separate items. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; review the total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can you pick up old electronics today in Modesto?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates shown at checkout and have the prepared items outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done. The booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.
Does computer removal include my monitor and printer?+
Desktop computer covers one tower or one all-in-one computer. Add a separate monitor, printer or laptop as its own item if it is going too. For small devices, cables and chargers together, choose Box of electronics and check the description before booking.
Do you erase data from old computers?+
Data erasure and certified data destruction are not included in Dropcurb removal. Back up the information you need, then follow the manufacturer’s sign-out and reset instructions before pickup. If a device cannot be erased or contains sensitive business information, arrange suitable data handling before giving it away. Completion photos confirm the pickup, not data destruction.Official guidance
Can I book one box of old cables and small electronics?+
Yes. Box of electronics is an existing option for small devices, cables and chargers together in one box. A monitor, desktop computer and printer each have their own item option. Send a photo before booking for a large or heavy box, unusual contents or separate batteries so we can confirm the fit.
Can a Modesto television go out with the bulky items?+
No. Televisions, computer monitors and plate glass are on the unacceptable list for the bulky item programme, and electronic waste is refused at the city's household hazardous waste events as well. Call the Solid Waste Division at 209-577-5494 to confirm the current route for a screen before it leaves the house.Official guidance
Where do Modesto paint, oil and batteries go?+
To a city drive-up household hazardous waste drop-off event, with sealed containers, no mixed liquids, no container larger than 5 gallons and no more than 120 pounds of combined weight. Antifreeze, aerosols, batteries, bulbs, paint and thinner, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane cylinders, used motor oil and filters and similar items are accepted, while electronic waste, explosives, ammunition, tires, business waste and medications are refused.
