The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

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.

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 and electronics have one city route and it is the Citizens Convenience Station, which lists TVs and electronics among the bulky items it takes from residents, while the carts and the alley barrels take only household garbage and recyclables.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The Citizens Convenience Station accepts televisions and electronics from Abilene residents with a driver's licence and a current City of Abilene water bill at no published charge, limited to about one pickup bed sized load a visit, and does not accept loads hauled from commercial, multi-family or government sites.
When & how
Take the device to 2149 Sandy Street from Monday to Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. or on Saturday between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., and unload it yourself into the container the attendant directs you to.
Get it ready
Wipe the personal information off computers, phones and smart televisions before anything leaves the house, keep cables and remotes with the device, and keep electronics out of the garbage cart, the recycling cart and the alley barrel.
Collection runs twice weekly on either Monday and Thursday or Tuesday and Friday, containers go out by 6 a.m. with the handle facing the house, on the curb rather than in the street and no more than five feet back on the property, with five feet of clearance from cars and mailboxes. Trash goes in the container bagged, tree limbs never go in the container, and the containers themselves are city property that stays with the address.
The Citizens Convenience Station and the Abilene Brush Center both serve Abilene residents only, and both ask for a driver's licence and a current City of Abilene water bill at the gate. The convenience station takes about one pickup bed sized load a visit and the household unloads its own material, while construction waste, tires, commercial loads and loads hauled from multi-family or government property are refused there.
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.
