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.

Household electronics are not part of routine collection. Polk County accepts them at its household hazardous waste facility, and bulk refuse that is neither furniture nor an appliance is charged by volume.
City cost & eligibility
Polk County takes household electronics from residents at no additional fee, with a limit of five components per visit, while the City charges bulky non-horticultural refuse by the cubic yard. Confirm which route fits the item before you move it.
When & how
Drop electronics at the county facility during its posted hours, or ask the City whether the item can go out with a scheduled bulk pickup.
Get it ready
Keep screens intact and unbroken, and separate any loose batteries for the household hazardous waste route.
Anything too large for the cart that is neither furniture nor an appliance is collected as non-horticultural refuse and charged by the cubic yard.
City cost & eligibility
$15.67 for published bulk rate per cubic yard of non-horticultural refuse. City-serviced residential addresses inside city limits. Ask about odd-shaped items, including exercise equipment, when you schedule.
When & how
Request the pickup through Access Winter Haven and describe the pile so the division can confirm the volume charge.
Get it ready
Keep the pile loose and reachable at the curb, and confirm whether the item needs to be broken down.
Bulk pickup is a scheduled service, so the couch, mattress, appliance or pile waits for the confirmed date rather than the routine route. Describe every item when you request the pickup.
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 Winter Haven Solid Waste Division and Polk County Solid Waste
Schedule a City bulk pickup
City-serviced homes with furniture, mattresses, appliances or a bulky pile that the weekly cart cannot take.
Cost & conditions
From $14.69 for lowest published per-item bulk rate for furniture, with separate published rates for appliances, scrap-sized refuse and non-horticultural refuse by volume. City of Winter Haven residential accounts inside city limits. Request the pickup first and confirm the current rate for the exact items.
Arrange it
Submit the request through Access Winter Haven or call the Solid Waste Division, then set the items out for the confirmed date.
Bulk pickup is an a la carte, scheduled service. Routine collection does not take oversized items, and each category carries its own published rate.
Two county routes serve Winter Haven addresses. The household hazardous waste facility on Environmental Loop takes chemicals and electronics from residents at no additional fee with a five-component limit, and the northeast convenience center takes bulky, yard and construction material, tires and scrap metal at flat residential rates with proof of residency. Polk County now routes residents away from the North Central Landfill and to its transfer station, so confirm the current drop-off location and hours before loading.

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