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.

A television is one of the electronic items the local page names as an example of what must not go in a container, and it is accepted with the rest of the electronic waste at the free county collection events and centers.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free for Los Angeles County residents at the county collection events, the permanent collection centers and the S.A.F.E. centers, within the 15 gallon or 125 pound per trip limit. Business waste is not accepted.
When & how
Take the set to a county collection event, most of which run on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with no appointment, or to a permanent center or S.A.F.E. center on the days it is open.
Get it ready
Keep the television out of every cart, protect the screen for transport, and pack it in a box with the cables and remote. Bring it in the trunk rather than the passenger area, and stay in the vehicle while staff unload at the collection point.
Pack the material in cardboard boxes, keep products in their original containers, do not mix them, keep like chemicals together, label anything repackaged, and put the boxes in the trunk away from passengers. Take the load to a county collection event, a permanent collection center or a S.A.F.E. center, stay in the vehicle while staff unload, and remember the trip limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds.
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.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Free for Los Angeles County residents at the county collection events, the permanent collection centers and the City of Los Angeles S.A.F.E. centers, limited to 15 gallons or 125 pounds per trip. Business and out of county waste is not accepted.
Arrange it
Check the county schedule for the next collection event, which is usually a Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with no appointment, or use a permanent center or S.A.F.E. center on the days it is open. Pack the material in boxes in the trunk and stay in the vehicle on arrival.
The sites refuse trash and tires, white goods such as refrigerators, stoves and washing machines, explosives and ammunition, marine flares, radioactive materials, controlled substances and solar panels, so appliances and tires go through the bulky pickup instead.
South Whittier households mostly stay with the hauler. Request a bulky item pickup from Athens at (888) 336-6100 for furniture, a mattress or an appliance, and use the county mattress recycling program if a free drop off or retailer take back is easier. Paint, solvents, batteries, automotive fluids, pesticides, pool chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, medical waste, medicines, used motor oil and electronic waste go to the free Los Angeles County collection events, permanent centers or S.A.F.E. centers, with a trip limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds and a refusal list that includes trash, tires and white goods. Construction and demolition material has no curbside route at all, so the container comes from Athens, and nothing hazardous should ever be left out with a cart.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in South Whittier.
How much does TV removal cost in South Whittier?+
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 South Whittier?+
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.
