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.

Dearborn publishes no curbside electronics route, so a television or computer does not belong in either cart. Michigan law places the responsibility on manufacturers, and EGLE states that companies selling computers, televisions and printers in Michigan must provide free and convenient recycling options for residents and small businesses.
City cost & eligibility
Michigan law makes electronics recycling free only when the device is returned to its manufacturer, and EGLE warns that collection sites have their own operating costs, so confirm whether a fee applies with the manufacturer program or the recycler before the drop-off. No municipal Dearborn electronics fee is published.
When & how
Use a manufacturer takeback program or a registered Michigan recycler, and check the state list for the current registration year before making a trip. The 2024 list names metro Detroit recyclers in Southfield, Oak Park, Roseville and Detroit.
Get it ready
Delete personal and confidential information before the device leaves the house, and ask the recycler how it handles the material. EGLE notes that registered recycling facilities are not necessarily open to the public for drop-off, so confirm access before travelling.
Construction materials, hazardous material, fuel and ammunition are refused for disposal at the curbside and at the DPW Yard. Tires are accepted only on designated tire collection days, and Wayne County runs household hazardous waste collection sites around metro Detroit with four collections a year. Electronics are not part of the city collection, and Michigan law puts recycling responsibility on the manufacturers.
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.

Michigan electronics takeback and registered recyclers
A household with a television, computer, printer or other electronic device that has no curbside route in Dearborn.
Cost & conditions
Michigan law makes recycling free when the device is returned to its manufacturer, and EGLE warns that collection sites have their own costs, so confirm whether a fee applies with the manufacturer program or the recycler.
Arrange it
Start with the manufacturer of the device or a registered Michigan electronics recycler, and check the current registration list on the EGLE electronic waste pages before making a trip.
Registered recycling facilities are not necessarily open to the public for drop-off, so confirm access first, and delete personal data from the device before it leaves the house.
Dearborn's self-haul route is the DPW Yard at 2951 Greenfield, open to residents on the third Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at no cost, where household refuse, old appliances, couches, mattresses, outdated furniture and extra household garbage are accepted. Construction materials, hazardous material, fuel and ammunition are refused at the yard and at the curb, and tires only go out on designated tire collection days, so those loads need another route. Wayne County runs household hazardous waste collection sites around metro Detroit with four collections a year, and electronics are handled through Michigan's manufacturer takeback system and the state's registered recyclers rather than through the city. Call 313-943-2150 to confirm what the city will take and to book a special pickup for a heavy or oversized load.

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
