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.

When & how

Schedule through the city permitting portal or at the Operations Center or drop-off center, pay by cash, check or online, and put the tagged item at the curb by 7 a.m. on the assigned day because staff cannot enter private property.
Soft goods such as couches go out on Tuesday, and metal items, mattresses, televisions, Freon appliances, carpets and tires go out on Wednesday. Setting a category out on the wrong day means the crew will not take it.
