You’ll know when it’s gone.
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.

Electronic equipment is collected at the curb as its own scheduled pickup at a set price per item. The county also takes electronics at its recycling centres and at the landfill, where televisions and monitors cost one GarbCard each and CPUs and peripherals are free.
City cost & eligibility
$25 per item on the city curbside electronics collection, as set in the adopted city fee schedule; the county charges one GarbCard each for a television or monitor at its sites. City of Gastonia residential addresses for the curbside pickup, or Gaston County residents using a county recycling centre or the landfill during business hours.
When & how
Call the Customer Care Center at 704-866-6714 to report the item, place it at the curb before your regular collection day, and the city collects within 72 hours. County drop-off sites take electronics during their published opening hours.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers and drives before disposal and keep cables with the device they belong to. At a county site, a television or monitor needs a GarbCard bought in advance, while CPUs and peripherals carry no charge and tires off the rim are free.
Garbage, bulky items and yard waste go to the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day and may be set out after 6 p.m. the day before. Place the cart a few inches from the curb and never in the street, with the handle facing your house and the serial number facing the street, and bring it back in by midnight, since city ordinance requires carts to be stored behind the house.
Appliances and electronic equipment are collected as their own scheduled pickups at a set price per item. Call the Customer Care Center at 704-866-6714, put the item at the curb before your regular collection day, and the city collects within 72 hours.
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.

The county also takes electronics at its own sites, where a television or monitor needs a GarbCard bought in advance, CPUs and peripherals are free, and electric appliances such as vacuum cleaners, irons, radios and kitchen appliances are not accepted.
Gastonia's self-haul network is the county's. The Gaston County Landfill at 3155 Philadelphia Church Road in Dallas takes household and commercial waste, construction and demolition debris and yard waste with a half ton minimum on each per ton rate, and it accepts electronic equipment during business hours. Electronics elsewhere in the county go to every recycling centre except the Farmers Market and Duke Street, and the convenience sites run on GarbCards bought in advance from a vendor rather than cash, with televisions, monitors and mattresses priced by card and CPUs, peripherals and tires off the rim free. Household hazardous products wait for one of the four county events in 2026 at 200 Leisure Lane in Dallas, though fluorescent bulbs and latex paint can be taken to the landfill by appointment and batteries, motor oil and oil filters have convenience site routes of their own.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Gastonia.
How much does TV removal cost in Gastonia?+
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 Gastonia?+
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.
Will Gastonia pick up a television at the curb?+
Yes, as an electronic equipment pickup arranged by phone. Call 704-866-6714, put the set at the curb before your regular collection day, and the city collects it within 72 hours for its published per item charge.Official guidance
Where can Gaston County residents drop off electronics?+
Electronics go to every county recycling centre except the Farmers Market and Duke Street, and are also accepted at the Gaston County Landfill during regular business hours.

The City of Gastonia Solid Waste Division runs weekly residential collection and the weekly bulky collection, and the Customer Care Center on 704-866-6714 answers questions and schedules appliance and electronics pickups. The division offices are at 181 S. South Street, and missed garbage, recycling or yard waste collections must be reported within 24 hours.Official guidance
Does Gastonia have free bulky trash weeks?+
