Updates through the handoff.

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.

Passaic treats covered electronic devices as a separate curbside stream that rides the street cleaning route, and Passaic County adds free collection events for computers, monitors, printers and televisions.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Passaic household using the covered electronic device collection on its street cleaning day, or a Passaic County resident with proof of residency at a county computer and electronics collection event.
When & how
Put televisions and small electronics out on your street cleaning day rather than the garbage day, and keep them apart from paper, bottles, glass and plastics. The county's next 2026 collection runs Friday October 23 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday October 24 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Buehler's Cultural Center.
Get it ready
Never mix a covered electronic device with the recycling stream, and keep rechargeable batteries out of the garbage and recycling carts because the city flags them as a fire risk. Wipe data from computers and drives before handover, and ask the county about a device with a battery that cannot be removed.
Appliances and covered electronics need their own route
White goods such as air conditioners, dishwashers, grills, refrigerators, stoves and washing machines are collected on an appointment that you book with Public Works at 973-365-5654, and they never go in the garbage or recycling container. Televisions and small electronics take a third route and are picked up on your street cleaning day, kept apart from paper, bottles, glass and plastics.
Keep construction debris and chemicals out of every stream
Bricks, cement blocks, floor and ceiling tile, nails, paint, plaster, sheetrock or drywall, studs, windows, wood pallets, wood flooring and mirrors are refused by the city, and the homeowner arranges disposal separately. Rechargeable batteries, charcoal and pool chemicals stay out of the roll carts as well, and household chemicals belong at a Passaic County household hazardous waste collection.
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 pickup runs on street cleaning day rather than the garbage day, and the covered list covers televisions and small electronics such as toasters, microwaves, radios, speakers and monitors. Rechargeable batteries stay out of the trash and out of this pile.

Free Passaic County electronics collections
A Passaic County household with computers, monitors, printers, televisions or other electronic equipment that it would rather drop off on a collection day.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free for Passaic County residents with proof of residency. Businesses and institutions have to call the Recycling Division for pre-registration.
Arrange it
Bring the items to a county collection date: Friday October 23 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. or Saturday October 24 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Buehler's Cultural Center, 950 High Mountain Road in North Haledon. The county's other 2026 site was the Bloomingdale Senior Center on April 10 and April 11.
Two collection weekends a year only, on the published dates, and household material only unless a business pre-registers. The county's household hazardous waste events list electronics as unacceptable, so this electronics collection is the county route for screens and computers rather than the chemical event.

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.

How does a bulk pickup work in Passaic?+
