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.

Data storing devices such as desktops, MP3 players and smartphones are free, while laptops, monitors and televisions carry a fee and a limit of three units per household a day, and business generated material is refused.

Everything except the container waits for the monthly grappler day
The grappler service takes the waste that will not fit in the regular container, and it comes once a month on the household's normal trash pickup date rather than on demand. Residents look up their route and day on the Grappler Schedule or call 575-541-2111, and the published grappler line is 575-528-8068 with Spanish available.
