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 city collects large bulky electronic items such as a television at the curb and delivers them to the county's Electronics Recovery Center. The television has to sit outside the garbage cart, and smaller electronics do not qualify for the curbside route.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Curbside collection of a large bulky television is included in the monthly Solid Waste fee for households with city collection, and the Electronics Recovery Center takes electronic waste free from Scott and Rock Island County residents.
When & how
A large television goes out with bulky waste every other week on the recycling collection day. Smaller electronics have to be carried to the Electronics Recovery Center at 5650 Carey Avenue.
Get it ready
Put the television at the curb outside the garbage cart on the bulky waste day, and take small electronics, batteries and devices with a screen or circuit board straight to the recovery center instead.
Small electronics are not part of the curbside bulky route. They go to the Waste Commission of Scott County's Electronics Recovery Center at 5650 Carey Avenue, which takes computers, screens, phones, printers, stereos, batteries and any digital device with a screen or circuit board, free for Scott and Rock Island County residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Electronic waste is free for Scott and Rock Island County residents with no appointment, while residents of other counties and businesses pay fees set by the Waste Commission.
When & how
The Electronics Recovery Center is open 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on the first Saturday of the month, closed holidays, and residents do not need an appointment.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, phones and drives first. Batteries are a problem item for the recycling cart, so bag rechargeable and lithium batteries individually or tape the terminals before the trip, and check with the manufacturer for a battery rated 300 watt-hours or more, which the center cannot accept.
Bulky waste is collected every other week on the household's recycling collection day, so the two routes share one calendar. The city prints the calendar in the fourth quarter newsletter and utility bill for the north or south route, and the address-based schedule and reminders are available in the free ReCollect app.
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 Davenport Public Works Department, Solid Waste, with the Waste Commission of Scott County
Davenport curbside bulky waste
The route for furniture, a mattress, an appliance, a large television or tires that will not fit in the garbage cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Included in the monthly Solid Waste fee for single-family through three-plex households inside the city limits, with no published per-item charge.
Arrange it
Set the items at the curb outside the garbage cart on your bulky waste day, which is the recycling collection day every other week, and call 563.326.7923 if you are unsure of the date or whether an item is accepted.
Bulky waste is a shared curbside route rather than an appointment, the city does not publish a per-item count or weight limit, and items the crews will not take may be accepted by the Waste Commission of Scott County. Confirm a refrigerant appliance before it goes out.
Self-hauling in Davenport runs through the Waste Commission of Scott County, which operates the landfill and the recovery centers rather than collecting at the curb. The Scott Area Landfill at 11555 110th Avenue takes household garbage, construction and demolition debris, mattresses, refrigerant appliances and tires at the scale house, with payment due at the time of service and no load accepted after the closing bell. The Electronics Recovery Center at 5650 Carey Avenue takes televisions, computers, phones, printers, stereos and batteries free from Scott and Rock Island County residents without an appointment, and the Household Hazardous Material Facility close by at 5640 Carey Avenue takes propane tanks and other household hazardous material. Waste from outside Scott County needs prior approval, and refrigerators and freezers have to be emptied before they are dropped off. Landfill FeesLocations and HoursElectronicsNo Go Items

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Davenport.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Davenport?+
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 Davenport?+
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.
Will the city pick up a television?+
Yes, a large television is one of the bulky electronic items the city collects at the curb and delivers to the county's Electronics Recovery Center, so it goes out with bulky waste every other week on the recycling day. Small electronics do not qualify for that route and have to be taken to the recovery center at 5650 Carey Avenue.Official guidance
Where do small electronics and batteries go?+
Take them to the Waste Commission of Scott County's Electronics Recovery Center at 5650 Carey Avenue, which is free for Scott and Rock Island County residents and needs no appointment. Bag rechargeable and lithium batteries individually or tape the terminals first, and check with the manufacturer for a battery rated 300 watt-hours or more.Official guidance
Does Davenport charge extra for a bulky pickup?+
No separate per-item charge is published. Bulky waste is included in the monthly Solid Waste fee along with garbage, recycling and bundled brush collection for single-family through three-plex homes. Extra garbage beyond the cart is different, because that uses a paid sticker for a single bag or a special call for service for a larger pile.Official guidance
When are garbage, recycling and bulky items collected?+
Garbage is collected every week, while recycling and bulky waste share one route that runs every other week on the same day. The city publishes a north and south route map, prints the calendar in the fourth quarter newsletter and utility bill, and offers address-based schedules and reminders through the ReCollect app.Official guidance
Where do electronics, batteries and hazardous waste go?+
Small electronics and batteries go to the Waste Commission of Scott County's Electronics Recovery Center at 5650 Carey Avenue, which is free for Scott and Rock Island County residents and needs no appointment. Propane tanks and other household hazardous material go to the Household Hazardous Material Facility at 5640 Carey Avenue, and none of it belongs in the garbage or recycling cart.Official guidance
