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 stay out of the curbside recycling cart and out of a bulk trash pile. Kalamazoo County households can take televisions, monitors, computers and cords to the hazard center free, and the city adds Saturday drop-off events for anything that has to wait for a weekend.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free for a Kalamazoo County household outside Climax Township at the county Household Hazardous Waste Center. The city drop-off events charge a separate processing fee for older screens.
When & how
The county center takes material Tuesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Wednesday from noon to 6 p.m. and the second Saturday of the month from 8 a.m. to noon, and it does not open that Saturday in August or September. City drop-off events run 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on published Saturdays at Mayors' Riverfront Park, with October 31 and December 26, 2026 listed next.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, drives and phones before donating or dropping them off. Smoke detectors are refused on this route, and items holding liquid or refrigerant are not accepted with electronics. Keep televisions, monitors, laptops, cords and batteries out of the curbside recycling cart.
Keep tires, liquids and hazardous material out of the pile
A bulk trash pile will not take tires, large auto parts, paint cans or other containers of liquid, rocks, sand, glass, concrete, yard waste, household trash, recyclables, EPS foam, electronics, or a cooling appliance that still holds Freon. Hazardous material belongs at the county center on Lamont Avenue, and the drop-off day takes tires only when they are cut into flat pieces.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Kalamazoo.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Kalamazoo?+
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 Kalamazoo?+
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 old televisions go in Kalamazoo?+
Not in the recycling cart and not in a bulk trash pile. A Kalamazoo County household can take televisions, monitors, computers, printers and cords to the Household Hazardous Waste Center on Lamont Avenue free of charge, and the city's Saturday drop-off events at Mayors' Riverfront Park accept electronics with a processing fee for CRT and LCD screens.Official guidance
Who handles curbside recycling and bulk trash in Kalamazoo?+
The city's Department of Public Services runs curbside recycling, quarterly bulk trash, monthly yard waste and the fall leaf program, and the Solid Waste Millage pays for them instead of a per-pickup charge. Regular household trash is not a city service and has to be arranged privately. Bulk trash days are assigned by address, so check the city collection lookup or call 311.Official guidance
