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.

Electronics are refused on both city routes and pushed to the county drop-off. The city bars electronic waste from the trash bins, and the extra pickup article lists televisions, computers and their accessories among the items that are not accepted, then sends them to the Saint Joseph County Household Hazardous Waste Center, where the drop-off is free for South Bend residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Electronics are not allowed in the trash bin or on an extra pickup. The city states that electronics are dropped off free at the Saint Joseph County Household Hazardous Waste Center at 828 Kerr Street for South Bend residents, reachable on 574.235.9971.
When & how
Take the devices to the Household Hazardous Waste Center at 828 Kerr Street. The city publishes the address, the free terms and the phone number but not the opening hours on the pages read, so call 574.235.9971 before the trip rather than assuming a window.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from any computer, drive, phone or camera before handover. Keep electronics out of the trash bin, because only regular household trash may go in it, and keep them out of the yard waste bin, because recycling and household trash are both barred there. The refused list names televisions, DVD players, fax machines, cable boxes, portable players and navigation devices, e-readers, cameras, camcorders, digital photo frames, computers, monitors, printers, external hard drives, scanners, mice and keyboards.
Bagged household trash only, inside a city issued bin
Everything must be bagged and placed in a city issued 48 or 96 gallon bin with the lid closed and the opening facing the street. Bags on top of the bin, on the ground or in a private container are not collected, and only regular household trash belongs in the bin. Electronic waste, yard waste, loose debris, paints, chemicals and other hazardous material are all barred from it, and the bin goes within two feet of the curb by 6 a.m. and at least three feet from other bins and objects.
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.
Drop electronics, chemicals and tires at the county household hazardous waste center
A South Bend household with a television or computer, paint, solvents, batteries, bulbs, mercury items or up to six tires.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The city states that the Saint Joseph County Household Hazardous Waste Center at 828 Kerr Street is free for South Bend residents and that electronics are dropped off there free as well.
Arrange it
Drive the material to 828 Kerr Street. The center takes aerosols, batteries, corrosives, fluorescent bulbs, mercury items, paints and solvents, pesticides and herbicides, poisons, smoke detectors, styrofoam, tires, waste fuels, and waste oils and lubricants, alongside the electronics the city refuses on its own routes.
The city publishes the address, the accepted list and the phone number at 574.235.9971 but not the opening hours on the pages read, so call first. Waste fuels and waste oils cannot arrive in 55-gallon drums, tires are limited to six per year per household, and the city's own collection routes refuse electronics and hazardous material outright.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in South Bend.
How much does TV removal cost in South Bend?+
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 South Bend?+
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 televisions and electronics go in South Bend?+
To the Saint Joseph County Household Hazardous Waste Center at 828 Kerr Street, where the city says electronics are dropped off free for South Bend residents. Electronics are refused in the trash bin and on an extra pickup, with televisions, computers and their accessories all named on the refused list, and the center can be reached on 574.235.9971 to confirm the hours before a trip.Official guidance
Who collects trash in South Bend?+
The city Solid Waste division does the work itself, not a franchise hauler. It runs weekly trash collection for every city address from Monday through Thursday, with trash, yard waste and extra pickups all on the same day for a household, and service is delayed by one day when a city holiday falls on the collection day. Residents sign up when they start water service, and 311 handles scheduling and questions.Official guidance
What will South Bend not take on an extra pickup?+
Electronics and hazardous material are the two refused groups. The city lists televisions, computers and their accessories among the refused electronics, and aerosols, batteries, corrosives, fluorescent bulbs, mercury, paints and solvents, pesticides and herbicides, poisons, smoke detectors, tires, waste fuels and waste oils among the refused hazardous items, with electronics and hazardous waste going to the Kerr Street drop-off instead. Loose debris and anything with human or animal bodily fluids are also refused.Official guidance
