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.

Drop household hazardous waste at the authority facility
Placer County households with paint, solvents, pool chemicals, pesticides, batteries, used oil and filters, aerosol, automotive fluids, antifreeze, mercury devices, medicines, sharps or electronic items.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free household hazardous waste drop-off for Placer County residents, daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Arrange it
Take the material to the Materials Recovery Facility at 3195 Athens Avenue in Lincoln, and call 916-543-3960 with questions.
State law forbids placing hazardous items in the trash, so this route replaces the bin, and the facility is a disposal facility rather than a collection service.
Rocklin's waste collection is provided by Recology Auburn Placer, and the regional facility belongs to the Western Placer Waste Management Authority. Two routes matter for a clean-out. First, the free curbside pickup Rocklin offers by appointment for batteries, electronic waste, fluorescent tubes and bulbs, fats, oils and grease, and motor oil and filters, which is not available in all areas and requires a booking at 530-885-3735. Second, the bulky drop-off: furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics, metal, textiles, carpet and padding go to the Auburn Transfer Station at 12305 Shale Ridge Road, the Meadow Vista or Foresthill transfer station, or the authority's Materials Recovery Facility at 3195 Athens Avenue in Lincoln, with usable pieces better donated. Household hazardous waste is free at the same authority facility daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., since state law forbids putting paint, chemicals, batteries or electronics in the trash, and construction and demolition material is processed at the facility rather than collected at the kerb.
