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.

Cost & conditions
The district publishes no fee for household electronics or household hazardous waste, and it states that passenger tires are free for Lorain County residents. Confirm any charge at the center when you arrive, and note that business tire loads and commercial material follow different rules.
Arrange it
Drive to 540 S Abbe Road, Elyria, OH 44035, open Monday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with hours subject to change. Phone 440-329-5440.
County residents, businesses and organizations only, and dumping is prohibited. The center refuses furniture of any kind, mattresses, appliances other than microwaves, construction and demolition debris, scrap metal, tools, exercise equipment, yard waste, alkaline batteries, tires over a 20-inch rim, tube televisions over 27 inches and any console or cabinet television.
Most bulky material in Lorain does not need a trip or an appointment: furniture, mattresses and appliances go next to the blue container on the regular weekly pickup, provided the mattress and upholstered pieces are wrapped in plastic and any Freon-bearing appliance has had the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician. Electronics, household hazardous waste, microwaves and passenger tires go to the Lorain County collection center at 540 S Abbe Road in Elyria, open Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, and passenger tires are also free at the city's New Tire Site on East 28th Street on Tuesdays. The center refuses furniture, mattresses, appliances other than microwaves, construction debris, scrap metal, tools, exercise equipment and yard waste, so project material and anything oversized goes to a private container or to the landfill the city names on Oberlin-Elyria Road in Oberlin.
