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.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

Electronic waste cannot go in the trash or the recycling cart, and disposal is free for a City of Ventura resident with a Ventura address at Gold Coast Recycling.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Electronic equipment disposal is free for residential customers at Gold Coast Recycling, and the city states that a resident should bring identification and a Ventura address. Commercial businesses pay a fee for the same drop off, so a business load is quoted by the station.
When & how
Take the device to Gold Coast Recycling at 5275 Colt St. during the station's open hours, weekdays from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. The station is closed Sunday.
Get it ready
Computers, monitors, televisions, printers, fax machines, cell phones, VCRs, DVD players, consoles, lamps and small kitchen appliances are all accepted, and the station's rule of thumb is that anything with a circuit board counts as electronic waste. Wipe or remove personal data before the device leaves your hands. A hazardous item that is not a device goes to the monthly household hazardous waste collection event instead.
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 San Buenaventura.
How much does TV removal cost in San Buenaventura?+
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 San Buenaventura?+
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.
Can a television go out with the trash in Ventura?+
No. The city groups electronic waste with household hazardous waste as material that cannot be placed in the trash or the recycling cart, and it points residents at the free electronic waste drop off at Gold Coast Recycling instead.Official guidance
Where can I drop off electronics in Ventura?+
Gold Coast Recycling and Transfer Station at 5275 Colt St. takes electronic waste at no charge from a City of Ventura resident with a Ventura address, and the city asks residents to bring identification. Computers, monitors, televisions, printers, cell phones, VCRs, DVD players, consoles and small kitchen appliances are on the accepted list.Official guidance
Who collects trash and recycling in Ventura?+
E.J. Harrison and Sons is the city's exclusive franchise hauler and handles the weekly curbside collection of trash, recycling and yard waste, with residential pricing, billing and cart changes at 805-647-1414 or 800-41-TRASH. The city's Environmental Sustainability division runs the bulky item and household hazardous waste programs and can be reached at 805-652-4525.Official guidance
Do apartments and shared buildings get the same service?+
The city's bulky item program is written for residential customers and the hauler's page addresses residential customers without saying how a multi family property is treated. If you live in an apartment or a shared building, call 805-647-1414 to confirm what the property is eligible for before setting anything out.Official guidance
Does a holiday change my collection day?+
It can. Pickup may be delayed by one day in a holiday week, and the hauler publishes a holiday schedule lookup on its Ventura page. Carts still go out by 7 a.m. on whichever day the route runs.Official guidance
What happens at the monthly household hazardous waste event?+
The events run on the third Saturday of each month except December, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Gold Coast Recycling on Colt Street. An appointment is required through 805-652-4525, the events are for City of Ventura residents only, and each visit is limited to 15 gallons or 125 pounds of material.
