You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

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.

Electronics appear on the bulk list and go out on the regular collection day, while the drop-off facility takes household electronics and computers, but computers and computer equipment are refused at the curb.
City cost & eligibility
No electronics charge is published for either route, so confirm the device and any fee with the Division of Refuse and Recycling at (216) 252-4322, and note that computers and computer equipment have to go to the drop-off facility rather than the curb.
When & how
A television or other large electronic item goes out with the bulk items on the regular collection day, while computers and computer equipment go to the Drop-Off Facility and Recycling Center, open Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep devices out of the recycling cart, and route a computer or computer equipment to the drop-off facility because the city's FAQ names those as items not collected from the curb. Entry to the facility needs identification showing Lakewood residence or property ownership plus vehicle registration.
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.
