Old computer, spare monitor, printer that’s ready to go, gone from the curb. Choose your electronics, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
Keep the setup you use. Clear out the one you don’t.
The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.
The new laptop is working. The old monitor, tower and printer are still taking up a corner. Give the equipment you no longer use a pickup day, with the price settled before anyone arrives.
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.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Prepare your devices and have them outside before pickup.
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 have three city routes and one free county route. Garland residents can take computer equipment, wires and cables, appliances, audio visual, network and communications equipment and office equipment to eRecycler on Cavalier Drive, bring a listed set of items to the Transfer Station by appointment, or use the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center, where batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics are free with proof of residency.
City cost & eligibility
The city states that batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics are recycled at no cost at the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center with proof of residency in the form of a driver's license or current utility bill, while it publishes no rate for the Transfer Station appointment and names a private recycler that sets its own terms. Confirm the route and any fee before the load goes out, using the county center on 214-553-1765 for its hours or the Sanitation Department on 972-205-3500.
When & how
Book an appointment for the Transfer Station route through the city's online booking page, or drive to eRecycler on Cavalier Drive, or to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas. Call 214-553-1765 to check the center's hours.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before a computer, phone or console leaves the house, keep electronics out of the green cart because the city bars them there, and keep them out of the blue recycling cart. At the Transfer Station appointment, monitors, televisions and alkaline batteries are refused, so those items have to use another route.
Televisions and monitors have no city drop-off. The Transfer Station electronics appointment refuses both, Goodwill no longer accepts televisions, and the city points residents to the state television and computer recycling programs, the Dell and Goodwill RECONNECT program for other equipment, and retailers such as Staples, Best Buy and Office Depot.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no city rate or city drop-off for a television or monitor, so confirm the route and any fee with the Sanitation Department at 972-205-3500, or use one of the programs the city names, which set their own terms.
When & how
Check the program the city names before the set moves, because the Transfer Station appointment will refuse a monitor or television if it arrives there.
Get it ready
Keep the screen out of the green cart and the blue recycling cart. If the unit is going to a retailer or a manufacturer program, confirm the accepted size and any fee first, and if it is going to a state program, check that the program covers the brand.
Household chemicals never go in either cart. Paint, pesticides, fertilizer and pool chemicals, along with batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics, go to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas, which is free for a Garland resident with proof of residency. Televisions and monitors are refused at the Transfer Station electronics appointment, so those use a state program or a retailer.
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.
