A day to get it gone.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Arrange to have the TV outside before pickup.
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.

A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

The city publishes no electronics drop-off: its recycling sites take cardboard, plastic, newspaper and magazines, and mixed glass, so a device has to be confirmed locally or taken to the regional CHaRM drop-off.
City cost & eligibility
No city electronics route or rate is published, so confirm with the Department of Public Works at 404-669-3780 whether a device can be taken to a city event or must go elsewhere. The CHaRM drop-off takes most electronics at no fee and charges its own fee for televisions and monitors.
When & how
Confirm with the Sanitation Division first, or book a CHaRM appointment for a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday trip to the Atlanta site.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, tablets and phones before they leave the house, and keep devices with a battery out of the household trash and out of the recycling cart. Batteries go to a household hazardous waste route rather than the recycling drop-off, and CHaRM refuses alkaline and car batteries.
The city names no television route and no screen fee, while the CHaRM drop-off accepts televisions and monitors and publishes a per screen resident fee.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no television rate, so confirm with the Department of Public Works at 404-669-3780 whether a screen can go out with a bulk collection. The CHaRM drop-off takes televisions and monitors for its own published per screen resident fee, so ask for that price when you book.
When & how
Confirm the city route first, or book a CHaRM appointment for a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday drop-off.
Get it ready
Keep the screen whole and out of the household trash and the recycling carts, remove the stand, cables and loose batteries, and wipe any smart television before it leaves the house. Never put a screen in a recycling cart at either city drop-off site.
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.
Take hard-to-recycle items to the CHaRM drop-off in Atlanta
A household with a mattress, a large appliance, a television, a monitor or another electronic item that the city does not name.
Cost & conditions
From $15 each appliance at CHaRM for residents, with mattresses and box springs at $15 for twin or full size and $18 for queen or king, televisions and monitors at $25 each, and most other electronic items at no fee. Live Thrive CHaRM Atlanta, 1110 Hill St SE, and CHaRM DeKalb, 1225 Columbia Dr, Decatur. An appointment is required. These are the drop-off's own fees rather than a city charge, and alkaline and car batteries are refused.
Arrange it
Book an appointment on the CHaRM site, then drive to the Atlanta site on a Tuesday or Thursday between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. or on a Saturday between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m., and show the appointment code on arrival.
CHaRM is a nonprofit material recovery drop-off rather than a city or county agency, so its item list takes priority over anything printed elsewhere, it refuses some mattress types and alkaline and car batteries, and no cash is accepted on site.
Self haul in College Park means one city drop-off and one regional alternative. The city runs two self-service recycling sites for residents, at the Herschel Road and Frontage Road intersection on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and at 1904 Harvard Avenue daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the published list there is cardboard, plastic, newspaper and magazines, and mixed glass. Everything the city does not name, including mattresses, large appliances, televisions, monitors and other electronics, is available at Live Thrive's CHaRM drop-off at 1110 Hill St SE in Atlanta, by appointment on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., with a second site on Columbia Drive in Decatur; that drop-off publishes its own resident fees, requires an appointment, refuses some mattress types and refuses alkaline and car batteries. Construction debris is refused by the city with wood boards, fencing, flooring tiles and roofing materials named as examples, and no city alternative for that material is published, so a project load has to be arranged with a private hauler. Household chemicals and paint can also go to CHaRM, where the first 20 pounds are free for residents and anything above that is charged by weight, and the city names an annual Citywide Household Hazardous Waste and Shredder Event in April as its own household hazardous route.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in College Park.
How much does TV removal cost in College Park?+
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 College Park?+
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 do computers and printers go in College Park?+
The city publishes no electronics drop-off, and its two recycling sites accept only cardboard, plastic, newspaper and magazines, and mixed glass, so start by confirming with the Department of Public Works at 404-669-3780. Live Thrive's CHaRM drop-off in Atlanta takes any item that needs electricity or charging, with no fee for most electronic items and its own fee for televisions and monitors, by appointment and after a data wipe.Official guidance
