You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

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 cannot go in the Chesapeake trash cart or a recycling container. SPSA takes them free at its hazardous waste and e-waste drop-offs, and Chesapeake Recycles Day events collect them on set Saturdays.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. SPSA service area resident with a driver's license or proof of residence, bringing household quantities in a personal vehicle.
When & how
Take electronics to the Chesapeake Transfer Station on the first Wednesday or third Saturday of the month, 9 a.m. to noon, or to a Chesapeake Recycles Day event.
Get it ready
Remove personal or sensitive data from a computer, phone or drive before drop-off and keep the visit within the e-waste limit of 5 items per day. Household hazardous waste and e-waste never belong in the trash cart, a recycling container or the single-bin curbside load.
Request the collection before anything goes out, keep household items in a pile separate from yard debris, and stay inside one 4-foot by 4-foot by 10-foot household stack per week. Tape glass surfaces, remove refrigerator and freezer doors, and leave small debris that fits a bag to the resident after the truck has passed.
Bring proof of residency and a personal vehicle or a trailer up to 12 feet with no tools or equipment. Loose yard waste has to be bagged, rigid items must be no longer than 6 feet and 6 inches in diameter, and the load is screened for unauthorized waste at the station.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Chesapeake.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Chesapeake?+
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 Chesapeake?+
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 electronics go in Chesapeake?+
Take them to an SPSA household hazardous waste and e-waste drop-off or a Chesapeake Recycles Day event. The Chesapeake Transfer Station collects e-waste on the first Wednesday and third Saturday of the month, 9 a.m. to noon, at no charge to service area residents with proof of residency. Wipe personal data first, respect the limit of 5 items per day, and keep electronics out of the trash cart and the recycling containers.Official guidance
What does it cost to get rid of a large item in Chesapeake?+
The City of Chesapeake publishes no per-item charge for a household bulk collection from a residence it serves, and each household is limited to 12 bulk collections a year. The SPSA Chesapeake Transfer Station also takes household waste from residents at no charge for the first 12 visits each calendar year, and later visits are billed by weight at the station's published disposal rate.Official guidance
Why does a Chesapeake pickup depend on which program serves the address?+
Chesapeake is an independent city, and the City Waste Management Division collects from the residences it serves rather than from a surrounding county. A residence outside that service area, or a building whose waste is handled privately, has to use the SPSA transfer stations instead, and those sites serve member-community residents with proof of residency.Official guidance
Where can I take something the city will not collect?+
Homeowner remodeling material, tires and large metal loads go to an SPSA transfer station or the Regional Landfill in Suffolk. Household hazardous waste and electronics go to the Chesapeake Transfer Station on the first Wednesday or third Saturday of the month, and the city's Recycles Day events take the same material on scheduled Saturdays.Official guidance
