A day to get it gone.

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.

Electronic waste never goes in the carts, and the City runs free collection events at the maintenance yard while the county runs its own free program.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free electronic waste collection at the City events at the Public Works Maintenance Yard, and free disposal through the Los Angeles County household hazardous and electronic waste program.
When & how
The City holds electronic waste collection events at the Public Works Maintenance Yard at 825 South Sunset Avenue from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on its published Saturdays, and the county publishes a calendar of collection events around Los Angeles County.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of all three carts, because the hauler lists electronic waste as material that must not go in the containers and says it may interrupt service. Wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before it leaves your hands.
Electronic waste must stay out of the carts and is collected free at the City's maintenance yard events and through the Los Angeles County household hazardous and electronic waste program. The City also runs annual household hazardous waste roundups and a sharps container program at the Cortez Park Community and Senior Center.
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.

City electronic waste collection event
Households with televisions, computers, monitors, printers, tablets, phones or other electronics.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free electronic waste collection at the City's published events at the Public Works Maintenance Yard.
Arrange it
Take the items to 825 South Sunset Avenue on a published collection Saturday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m., or check the City page for the next date.
Event only, so the route is available on the published Saturdays, and anything the electronics vendor does not accept has to use the county program instead.
City of West Covina Environmental Services and Athens Services
Los Angeles County hazardous and electronic waste program
Households with paint, oil, batteries, cleaning products, light bulbs, sharps, pharmaceuticals, small propane cylinders or electronics.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free household hazardous and electronic waste disposal through the Los Angeles County collection program.
Arrange it
Check the county calendar for the next collection event or reuse center event and follow the posted instructions for the material being dropped off.
Solar panels are not accepted at temporary events or permanent collection centers, and the program covers household material rather than business waste.
West Covina households can self haul, but they have to be set up for it. Business owners and residential householders who want to collect and dispose of their own solid waste and recyclables instead of using the City's authorized hauler must first obtain a self hauler or back hauler permit from the City and follow the procedures under the City's organics ordinance. Electronic waste and household hazardous material are easier through the free programs: the City's collection events at the Public Works Maintenance Yard handle electronics, and the Los Angeles County household hazardous and electronic waste program runs events and reuse center days around the county for paint, batteries, oil, sharps, pharmaceuticals and small propane cylinders. Solar panels are not accepted at the county events or the permanent collection centers.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in West Covina.
How much does TV removal cost in West Covina?+
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 West Covina?+
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 I take electronic waste?+
The City holds electronic waste collection events at the Public Works Maintenance Yard at 825 South Sunset Avenue from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on its published Saturdays, using Full Circle Electronics, and the events take computers and laptops, cell phones, televisions, printers, hard drives and servers, monitors, tablets, game and stereo equipment and circuit boards.Official guidance
Is there another free option?+
Los Angeles County runs a free household hazardous and electronic waste collection program with events across the county and separate routes for electronic waste, paint recycling, household batteries, used motor oil, sharps and pharmaceuticals. Solar panels are not accepted at the events or the permanent collection centers.Official guidance
Who collects trash in West Covina?+
Athens Services is the City's franchise hauler and answers customer service calls from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7 a.m. to noon Saturday. City questions go to the Public Works Department at (626) 939-8458.Official guidance
Where do used needles go?+
The Cortez Park Community and Senior Center at 2501 East Cortez Street is a medical sharps container distribution and disposal location, and only West Covina residents can dispose of full containers there, not clinics or businesses. The county household hazardous waste program also lists sharps disposal.Official guidance
What does the organics rule require?+
The state organics law and the City's ordinance require all residents to separate yard trimmings, food waste and food-soiled paper from the trash and put them in the green cart the City's franchise hauler provides. Businesses and multifamily properties generating two cubic yards or more of waste receive green carts too, and small generators can apply for a waiver for space constraints or low volumes.Official guidance
How do I know which cart an item belongs in?+
The City publishes container guides for recycling, composting and landfill material in English and Spanish or Chinese and points residents to the hauler's searchable guide. The container rules also list batteries, cleaning products, fluorescent bulbs and tubes, LED lights, automotive parts, construction debris and electronic waste as items to keep out.Official guidance
