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.

Metro Central is an Oregon E-Cycles location that takes desktop and laptop computers, printers, televisions, monitors, tablets, keyboards and computer mice free of charge, with a limit of seven items per day per person, and a television can also ride a Pride bulky pickup.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Oregon E-Cycles covers the devices named above at the Metro Central transfer station with no charge, up to seven items per person per day; a Pride bulky pickup for the same device carries the company's quoted fee instead.
When & how
Take the devices to Metro Central at 6161 NW 61st Ave. in Portland during public hours every day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or book a Pride bulky pickup on 503-625-6177.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep the devices out of the garbage cart, and note that items may arrive intact or broken.
Large items are not part of the weekly route. Book the pickup with Pride on 503-625-6177, describe the item so the fee can be quoted, and put the piece out on the day the company gives. A drop box or a temporary container is the better route for a whole house clear out.
Self haul goes to the Metro Central transfer station

Arrange it
Call Pride on 503-625-6177, describe the item and its size, and set the piece out on the day the company gives.

Before you book

Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Durham.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Durham?+
A computer monitor is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Choose the actual devices and quantities to see your combined price online. A separate desktop tower and monitor are separate items. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; review the total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can you pick up old electronics today in Durham?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates shown at checkout and have the prepared items outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done. The booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.
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
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.
Where do old televisions and computers go in Durham?+
To Metro Central at 6161 NW 61st Ave. in Portland, which is an Oregon E-Cycles location taking desktop and laptop computers, printers, televisions, monitors, tablets, keyboards and computer mice at no charge, with a limit of seven items per person per day during public hours. Pride Disposal also collects a television on a bulky pickup booked on 503-625-6177 for its own fee.Official guidance
What does a bulky pickup cost in Durham?+
The fee is quoted by Pride Disposal & Recycling when the pickup is booked on 503-625-6177, because the company prices the service rather than publishing a Durham rate table. Two routes at the Metro Central transfer station are free instead: mattresses and box springs up to four per customer per day, and computers, printers and televisions through Oregon E-Cycles, with a limit of seven items per person per day.Official guidance
Which company handles the weekly collection in Durham?+
Pride Disposal & Recycling. The city's agency partners page states that Pride provides weekly garbage, yard debris and recycling services in the city, and the city's garbage page adds that recycling is regulated by Metro and points to Washington County's collection day tool. Pride's office is in Sherwood on 503-625-6177.Official guidance
Can a low waste household skip weekly collection?+
Yes. Pride offers an on call service in 32 gallon carts for households that generate very little garbage, where the cart is only collected when a pickup is requested. The request has to reach the office by 4 p.m. on the business day before the collection day.Official guidance
Is there anything extra for recycling in Durham?+
Yes. Pride's Recycle+ program covers film plastics and number one clamshell plastics, and the company lists Durham among the jurisdictions where it is available. The extra recycling cart itself is provided at no charge when a household regularly fills the standard cart.Official guidance
