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.

Televisions are named in the city's bulk list, and the Lorain County Collection Center takes electronic scrap including computers, printers, monitors and televisions. The county's two published lists disagree about large tube sets.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no household fee for the Collection Center, so confirm the item and any terms by calling the District on 440-329-5440, which is also the number the county asks you to use to schedule a large load.
When & how
Take the device to the Collection Center at 540 South Abbe Road, open Monday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., or set a television out with the regular collection.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before a computer or hard drive leaves the house, keep cords and remotes with the device, and measure a tube television before hauling it, because the county flyer lists CRT televisions while the county website excludes sets over 27 inches and console or cabinet sets.
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.

Use the Lorain County Collection Center
A Lorain County household with electronics, household chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, small tires, paper to shred or extra recyclables.
Cost & conditions
The county publishes no household fee for the Collection Center, so confirm the item and the terms by calling the District on 440-329-5440, the same number it asks large loads to book through.
Arrange it
Take the material to 540 South Abbe Road in Elyria with photo identification, on Monday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday noon to 6 p.m. or Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Lorain County residents only, dumping is prohibited, and the center refuses appliances other than microwaves, furniture of any kind, mattresses, exercise equipment, construction debris, scrap metal, tools and general refuse.
Self-hauling in Elyria means two places. The Lorain County Collection Center at 540 South Abbe Road takes electronic scrap, household hazardous waste from residences, fluorescent bulbs and ballasts, tires up to a 20-inch rim, paper for shredding and extra recyclables, on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday with photo identification, and the county asks large loads to be booked on 440-329-5440. Everything else that is too big for a cart belongs on the city route: bulk items go out with the regular collection after they are disassembled, stripped of screws and nails, and prepared the way the city asks, with mattresses wrapped in plastic, carpet cut and tied, and no appliance that still holds refrigerant. Construction and demolition debris has no local route, because the city publishes none and the county refuses that material outright. Yard waste goes to the Barnes Materials compost facility at 45 Chestnut Street, which is free for Elyria residents.

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
