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.

Electronics are not a cart item, and the district handles them through a separate computer component and television recycling programme with drop-off sites across Lake County rather than through the monthly hazardous waste events.
City cost & eligibility
The district names the electronics programme and its drop-off sites but publishes the locations and any charges on its programme page rather than the hazardous waste page, so confirm the site, the accepted devices and the cost before dropping a television or computer off.
When & how
Check the district's computer component and TV recycling page for the nearest drop-off point and its opening days, because the monthly hazardous waste events run on published dates and are a different service.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the city cart because the carts are for kitchen garbage, and note that the monthly county events accept items such as batteries, oil based paint, solvents and propane rather than household electronic devices.
Lake County Solid Waste Management holds household hazardous waste collections across the county monthly from March through October, restricted to Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at Hammond Public Works, 601 Conkey St., on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Accepted material includes antifreeze, automotive fluids, household batteries, fuels, oil based paint, pesticides, propane tanks, solvents, sharps in a rigid container and sealed thermometers, while latex paint, asbestos, acetylene tanks and auto batteries are refused, and paper shredding is offered with a four bag limit.
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.

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 Hammond?+
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 can a Hammond household take a television?+
Lake County Solid Waste Management runs a separate computer component and television recycling programme that lists drop-off sites across the county, and the city directs banned material away from the carts entirely. Check the district's electronics programme for the nearest location and any charge, and note that the monthly household hazardous waste collections from March through October are a different service, with the Hammond event at 601 Conkey St. running on September 12 from 9am to 2pm.Official guidance
Where do Hammond chemicals and electronics go?+
Chemicals go to a Lake County Solid Waste Management collection event, held monthly from March through October for Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at 601 Conkey St. on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Electronics and appliances have their own district programmes for televisions, computers, fridges, microwaves and washers, with drop-off sites published separately, so check those pages before a trip.Official guidance
