Old computer, spare monitor, printer that’s ready to go, gone from the curb. Choose your electronics, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
Keep the setup you use. Clear out the one you don’t.
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.

Electronic waste is covered by two published routes. The city's collection schedule page states that residents may arrange free special pickup of televisions, furniture or computer equipment, while the county household hazardous waste centre takes monitors, televisions, printers and other plug-in electronics free from county households. The special pickup page's own free list does not name electronics, so the route is worth confirming.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free on the city special pickup route as described on the collection schedule page, and free at Pinellas County's household hazardous waste collection centres for county households. The special pickup page's itemized free list names furniture, carpet and appliances without electronics, so confirm which applies when the request is placed.
When & how
Call the Sanitation Department at 727-893-7398 to arrange the free special pickup of a television or computer, or take the device to the county HHW Center at 2855 109th Avenue N on one of its published operating days from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., or to HHW North in Clearwater on a select Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the trash container, and keep rechargeable batteries with the chemical route, because the county accepts nickel metal hydride, nickel cadmium, small sealed lead acid, lithium ion and lithium polymer batteries with published limits.
A special pickup is arranged, not automatic. Submit the request in SeeClickFix and include a photo of the items to help expedite it, or call the Sanitation Department at 727-893-7398. Free items are scheduled by the department, anything outside the free list gets an estimate, and the resident confirms the fee before the pickup. Items go where the address normally sets out its trash: in the alley for an alley collection address, or on the curb for a curbside address. Regular trash and yard waste belong in the designated container rather than loose on the curb or in the alley.
Yard waste and chemicals have their own free routes
Yard material does not need a pickup. Five city brush sites open at 9 a.m. and close at 5:30 p.m. seven days a week, closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day, and they take grass clippings, brush, cuttings, trimmings, yard waste, mixed metals, appliances and cement roofing tiles from properties that pay an active sanitation charge, with proof of residency at the entrance. Household chemicals go the other way, to Pinellas County's household hazardous waste centres, which take paint, automotive fluids, batteries, bulbs, mercury devices, pool and spa products and other chemicals free from county households within published limits, and where the HHW Center at 2855 109th Avenue North also takes electronics and plug-in appliances.
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.
