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.

Cathode ray tubes are on the Massachusetts disposal ban list, so an older television or monitor cannot go in the trash or the recycling cart. Lowell publishes no municipal electronics drop-off and directs residents to an outside source such as a hauler or a private recycler.
City cost & eligibility
Cathode ray tubes are banned from disposal in Massachusetts, and Lowell publishes no municipal electronics drop-off, so confirm a hauler or private recycler and its charge before the device leaves the property. The Solid Waste and Recycling Office on 978-674-4309 can point to the current local option.
When & how
Confirm a hauler or recycler that takes the device before setting anything outside, because neither the trash cart nor the green recycling cart can take it.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, phones and drives before the device leaves the house. Keep the set or monitor out of both carts and out of a general bulky pile until the receiving service confirms that it takes the item.
Massachusetts waste bans still apply to a bulky load
Mattresses and box springs, textiles, white goods, cathode ray tubes, construction material, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, treated and untreated wood and whole tires are all banned from disposal in Massachusetts. Those items cannot go in the trash cart or the recycling cart, and the city tells residents to contact an outside source such as Waste Management or another private hauler.
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.
Lowell does not run its own drop-off centre for household bulky material, so self-haul means a scheduled pickup through Waste Management or a private hauler, or a reuse or donation stop. Massachusetts waste bans matter here: mattresses and box springs, textiles, white goods such as refrigerators and washers, cathode ray tubes, construction material, metals, wood and whole tires cannot be disposed of as ordinary waste, so those loads need a hauler that handles them properly. The city lists donation and reuse options around Lowell, including a retail store that takes mattresses and box springs, a reuse store for building material, and textile and household goods charities, and it holds registered household hazardous waste days for paint, chemicals and similar products. Confirm the receiving service and its charge before anything leaves the property, and keep the set-out in front of your own address no earlier than the day before collection.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lowell.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Lowell?+
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 Lowell?+
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 televisions and electronics go in Lowell?+
Not in the trash or the recycling cart. Cathode ray tubes are on the Massachusetts disposal ban list, and the city states that many banned items cannot go in the recycling cart and that residents have to contact an outside source such as Waste Management or another private hauler. Confirm the receiving service and its charge before the device goes outside.Official guidance
When is trash and recycling collected in Lowell?+
Trash is collected every week and recycling every other week. The city asks residents to refer to the collection schedule on the city homepage for the day and week that apply to the address, and to have the carts out the night before with the lids closed. The hauler asks for the container on the street with the wheels against the curb by 7 a.m. and removed the same day, and when a holiday falls on a collection day the route moves one day later for the rest of the week.Official guidance
Which items are banned from the trash in Massachusetts?+
Asphalt pavement, brick and concrete, cathode ray tubes, clean gypsum wallboard, commercial food material, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, glass, metal and plastic containers, lead acid batteries, leaves and yard waste, mattresses, recyclable paper and cardboard, textiles, treated and untreated wood, white goods and whole tires. Lowell adds that many of them cannot go in the recycling cart, so the route is an outside source such as a hauler or a private recycler.Official guidance
