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.

The county runs an e-recycling programme through the Seminole Road Landfill that takes computers, servers, printers, phones and flat screen monitors, and it explicitly refuses televisions and CRT monitors.
City cost & eligibility
The e-recycling flyer publishes the accepted and refused items and the drop-off location without stating a fee or its hours, so confirm the hours and whether anything in the load is chargeable by calling the Sanitation Division at 404-294-2900 before the trip.
When & how
Take accepted equipment to the Seminole Road Landfill at 4203 Clevemont Rd in Ellenwood, and check the current hours and any charge with the Sanitation Division first.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before it leaves the house, and keep these items out of the load because the e-recycling programme refuses them: televisions and CRT monitors, appliances including refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, microwaves and ovens, alkaline batteries, gas grill tanks, liquid containing devices, vacuum cleaners, and household trash.
Weekly collection runs once a week for all three streams
DeKalb County collects garbage, recycling and yard trimmings once a week on the same day for Decatur addresses. Containers go out after 7 p.m. the night before collection, have to be curbside by 7 a.m. on the collection day, and come back in within 24 hours of service. Collection schedules change during county-observed holidays and service can be suspended in bad weather, and the county asks residents to check the holiday schedule and the service status notices before reporting a missed pickup.
What never goes in a curb load, and where it goes instead
Tires are refused in the bulky and special collection programmes and are directed to the Seminole Road Landfill, where the county publishes separate rates for tires under 18 inches, tires over 18 inches and tires left on rims. Hazardous materials, concrete products, Bagster bags and liquids are refused as well. Electronic waste goes to the county's e-recycling drop-off at the Seminole Road Landfill on Clevemont Road in Ellenwood, which takes computers, servers, printers, hard drives, cables, phones and flat screen monitors, but expressly refuses televisions and CRT monitors, appliances, alkaline batteries and liquid containing devices.
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 electronics to the county e-recycling drop-off
A Decatur household with a computer, server, printer, scanner, hard drive, cables, cell phone or LCD flat screen monitor.
Cost & conditions
The county's e-recycling flyer publishes the accepted and refused items and the drop-off site without stating a fee or its hours, so confirm both with the Sanitation Division at 404-294-2900 before loading the car.
Arrange it
Take the accepted equipment to the Seminole Road Landfill at 4203 Clevemont Rd in Ellenwood after confirming the hours, and ask about larger loads at the same number.
Televisions and CRT monitors are expressly refused, along with appliances, alkaline batteries, gas grill tanks, liquid containing devices, vacuum cleaners and household trash, so a television needs another route that the county confirms.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Decatur.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Decatur?+
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 Decatur?+
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.
Where do computers and televisions go in Decatur?+
Computers, servers, printers, scanners, hard drives, cables, cell phones and LCD flat screen monitors go to the county's e-recycling drop-off at the Seminole Road Landfill on Clevemont Road in Ellenwood, which the Sanitation Division runs to keep electronics out of the landfill. Televisions and CRT monitors are expressly not accepted there, nor are appliances, alkaline batteries or liquid containing devices, so confirm a television with the Sanitation Division at 404-294-2900 before moving it, because the flyer publishes neither a fee nor the site's hours.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Decatur?+
DeKalb County does. The county's Solid Waste Management department names Decatur among the cities it serves alongside unincorporated DeKalb and several other cities, and it collects garbage, recycling and yard trimmings once a week on the same day, runs the fee based bulky item collection and the prepaid special collections, and operates the Seminole Road Landfill where tires and electronics go. Customer care is 404-294-2900 on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and in-person service is at 3720 Leroy Scott Drive in Decatur from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.Official guidance
What will the county not collect at the curb?+
Tires, which are directed to the Seminole Road Landfill at published rates by size, along with hazardous materials, concrete products, Bagster bags and liquids. The county asks residents to keep such material out of the pile, because the bulky and special collection programmes refuse it, and the landfill also refuses hazardous material at the e-recycling drop-off, where televisions and CRT monitors, appliances, alkaline batteries and liquid containing devices are not accepted.Official guidance
Can I put a television in the county e-recycling drop-off?+
No. The county's e-recycling flyer lists televisions and CRT monitors among the unacceptable items, along with appliances, alkaline batteries, gas grill tanks, liquid containing devices and household trash. It does accept computers, servers, printers, copiers, scanners, fax machines, hard drives, cables, cell phones and LCD flat screen monitors at the Seminole Road Landfill on Clevemont Road in Ellenwood, and because the flyer publishes neither a fee nor the site's hours, confirm both with the Sanitation Division at 404-294-2900 before moving anything.Official guidance
