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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Bloomington.
How much does TV removal cost in Bloomington?+
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 Bloomington?+
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 can I take an old television in Bloomington?+
Neither the monthly bulky pickup nor Curbside Cleanup accepts televisions. Use the annual recycling drop-off event in September, the Hennepin County drop-off facility on West 96th Street, or an on-call electronic pickup arranged through Utility Billing at 952-563-8726.Official guidance
Who can use Bloomington's bulky item programs?+
Households with City of Bloomington garbage and recycling service, which the city describes as single family homes, duplexes and certain townhomes that opted in. Apartments and some townhomes are outside the curbside programs and pay through their own association, and a household that opts out of city solid waste service cannot use the bulky collection or the Citywide Curbside Cleanup program.Official guidance
Who can use the Hennepin County drop-off facility in Bloomington?+
Hennepin County households, with proof of residency such as a driver's license or utility bill. Household hazardous waste is also accepted from several neighboring counties, but businesses, rental property operators and condominium or townhouse associations are generally not eligible, and mattresses are taken at the Brooklyn Park transfer station only.Official guidance
