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.

Electronic waste is free at the Danbury drop-off center, and Connecticut law requires the city to provide that free collection point for televisions, computers, monitors and printers.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free at the Danbury drop-off center for permit holders. Batteries, ink cartridges, compact fluorescent and fluorescent bulbs and holiday string lights also go in the electronic waste container at no charge.
When & how
Take the devices to 307 White St. during opening hours and place them in the electronic waste container. No appointment is needed.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the regular recycling and trash because scavenging is prohibited at the site, and clear personal data before the device leaves the property. Incandescent bulbs do not belong in the e-waste container and go in the trash, and a lead acid car battery is refused at the center because Connecticut law requires returning it to a retailer.
The drop-off center needs a permit and takes cash only
The Mom & Pop Drop Off and Recycling Center at 307 White St. requires a permit, which is free to Danbury residents with proof of residency and is issued at the site, with a daily fee for non-residents. Payment at the transfer station is by cash. The center opens Tuesday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday noon to 8 p.m., Thursday and Friday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and commercial vehicles or vehicles with loose garbage cannot use it.
The recycling truck runs a different street each weekday
Danbury residents can drop off single stream recycling between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. with the Year-Round Recycling Truck Program: Mondays at the War Memorial parking lot in Rogers Park, Tuesdays at Richter Park on Aunt Hack Road, Wednesdays at the Police Athletic League parking lot on Hayestown Avenue, Thursdays at the King Street Volunteer Fire House on South King Street, and Fridays at Mill Plain Green in front of 65 Mill Plain Road.
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 of Danbury Public Utilities Division with the Housatonic Resources Recovery Authority, the city's solid waste and recycling authority

A Danbury household with furniture, an appliance, a clean mattress, electronic waste, bagged trash, textiles, books, cardboard, glass or bundled brush.
Cost & conditions
The center prices almost everything by the item, the unit or the bag, and the page publishes the full schedule of charges, so confirm the current fee for the specific load when the permit is issued or when the load is weighed or counted at the gate. A permit is required and is free to residents with proof of residency, while a non-resident pays the published daily permit fee, and payment is by cash.

Bulky waste, construction and demolition material, asphalt, antifreeze, fuel, hazardous waste, motor oil, paints and stains, pesticides, propane tanks, tires, pharmaceuticals and most yard waste are refused, so each of those has to take its own route.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Danbury.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Danbury?+
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 Danbury?+
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.
Is electronics recycling free in Danbury?+
Yes. Electronic waste is accepted free in the container at the Danbury drop-off center for permit holders, and Connecticut's electronics recycling law requires each municipality to provide residents with a free, convenient and accessible collection point for televisions, computers, monitors and printers.Official guidance
What else goes in the electronics container?+
Batteries, both single use and rechargeable, ink cartridges, compact fluorescent and fluorescent bulbs, and holiday string lights all go in the electronic waste container at no charge. Silver oxide watch batteries are the exception and go to a household hazardous waste event, while incandescent bulbs go in the regular trash.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Danbury?+
A private hauler the resident chooses, because curbside collection in the region is a private subscription service. The Housatonic Resources Recovery Authority is the City's solid waste and recycling authority and publishes a chart of registered haulers permitted to collect in each municipality. Trash goes first to a regional transfer station, one of which is in Danbury, and is then shipped to the Wheelabrator waste-to-energy plant in Bridgeport.Official guidance
Can I bring bagged trash to the drop-off center?+
Yes, with a permit and cash. Household trash is charged by the bag, and the published rates step up with the bag size, from a thirteen gallon bag to a fifty gallon or larger bag. Commercial vehicles and vehicles carrying loose garbage cannot use the center, so the trash has to arrive bagged in a passenger vehicle.Official guidance
Can textiles and books be recycled instead of thrown out?+
Yes, both are free at the drop-off center. Textiles go in a collection container that takes clothing, footwear, accessories and linens, which may be ripped or stained as long as they are dry and bagged. Books are free to recycle but the pages have to be ripped out of both paperbacks and hardcovers, with the binding going in the trash, and a dirty, mouldy or wet book cannot be recycled or donated.Official guidance
What happens at a household hazardous waste event?+
Residents stay in their vehicle the whole time, place only the material to be removed at the back of the vehicle, and have a driver's license ready as proof of residency while workers take the contents out. Waits run from five to thirty minutes, the event runs rain or shine, the authority may inspect a vehicle with an excessive amount of material, and large quantities are subject to a fee. Medicines cannot be brought to these events.Official guidance
