Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the job is done. With your TV outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home for pickup.
The TV’s type and size determine which item to choose. A new model and an old model can use the same option if their shape and screen size match.
Flat-screen TVs
Measure the screen diagonally, corner to corner, without the frame. Choose under 42 inches or 42 inches and larger. A TV measuring exactly 42 inches belongs to the larger option.
Tube TVs
An older tube or CRT television has curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Choose Tube TV even if its screen is small. A rear-projection TV is different; send a photo before booking so we can check the fit.
TV stands and other electronics
The TV price covers the television. Add a media console, computer monitor or other item separately if it is going too. Choose only what you want removed and review the combined price.

Pride collects bulky and oversized material at the home by appointment for a fee, and the examples it publishes are a couch, a mattress, a fridge, a washing machine, a lawnmower, furniture, a television, a tire, a toilet, a recliner and a water heater.
City cost & eligibility
Pride states that it picks bulky items up for a reasonable fee and directs customers to its office for the rate, and Durham publishes no bulky fee, so confirm the item and the price on 503-625-6177 before the pickup is booked.
When & how
Book the pickup with Pride on 503-625-6177, and for a large clear out order a temporary container or a drop box instead of stacking extra items beside the cart.
Get it ready
Keep the item out of the garbage cart and off the street until the pickup is scheduled, and describe the item accurately when booking because the price depends on what is being collected.
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

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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Durham.
How much does TV removal cost in Durham?+
A flat-screen TV under 42 inches is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Larger flat screens and tube TVs have their own prices. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Choose the type that matches your TV and review your total, including any applicable tax, before payment.
Can I get same-day TV pickup in Durham?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates offered at checkout and have the TV outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done.
Will Dropcurb remove my TV from the wall or carry it downstairs?+
You arrange unmounting, disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Dropcurb starts at an accessible outdoor location, where we load your TV and take it away. If you need help removing a mounted TV or moving a heavy tube TV outside, arrange that separately before your pickup day.
Do you pick up old tube or CRT televisions?+
Yes. Choose Tube TV for an older television with curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Its price is $249 as the first item and $249 as an additional item. A rear-projection television is a different item; send a photo before booking rather than choosing the tube-TV option.
Does my old TV have to work?+
Your TV does not need to turn on for removal. Choose its type and size and arrange to have it outside before pickup. A non-working TV and a TV with exposed broken glass are different situations; send a photo of unusual damage so we can confirm the plan before you book.
How does a bulky item leave a Durham home?+
On an appointment booked with Pride Disposal & Recycling on 503-625-6177, for a fee the company quotes when the item is described. Pride's published examples include a couch, a mattress, a fridge, a washing machine, a lawnmower, furniture, a television, a tire, a toilet, a recliner and a water heater, and a larger project is better served by a temporary container or a drop box.Official guidance
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
