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.

Residential electronics are collected by request every Thursday rather than with the bulky pile, and the City publishes no charge for the request.
City cost & eligibility
The City lists residential electronics as a by request service running every Thursday but publishes no rate for it, so confirm whether the request is covered by the monthly charge or billed separately with Waste Management Services on 850-891-4968 before the item goes out.
When & how
By request on the Thursday that the City runs the route, so the pickup is arranged through the service request rather than left for the bulky round.
Get it ready
Keep electronics off the bulky pile and out of the garbage, because the City collects them on their own route by request. Wipe or remove personal data before the device leaves the home, and separate any removable battery so it is not crushed in the truck.
Hazardous waste and project debris have their own routes
Hazardous waste is not picked up by the City at the curb and goes to a Cash for Trash event on the third Saturday of April or October, where a residential solid waste customer presents a City utility bill before unloading. Construction and demolition debris is collected by request rather than on the regular round, and electronics have their own by request Thursday route, so none of that material belongs in the garbage barrel or on the bulky pile.
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.
