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.

Televisions, computers, monitors, printers, phones, cables and gaming devices are kept out of the trash and the recycling cart and dropped at the county e-cycling station, which takes them from households without charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Household electronics delivered to the county e-cycling station, which the city guide and the city hazardous waste page both direct city residents to. The station serves households, so a home based business is outside the program, and a household is asked to stay within ten large items per drop-off.
When & how
The electronics and hazardous waste area at the I-66 Transfer Station opens six days a week and is closed on Wednesday, with Tuesday and Thursday running from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. and the other open days starting at 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, phones and drives before the trip, take batteries out of the devices so the cells can be handled separately, and keep electronics out of both curbside carts because lithium cells can start a fire in the truck.
Recyclables go loose in the blue cart, never in plastic bags, and glass is not part of the curbside program: bottles and jars go to a Purple Can Club bin or into the trash. Yard waste goes in reusable containers, paper bags or bundles of branches cut to 4 feet or less, and a plastic bag of leaves is tagged and left at the curb. Invasive plants such as English ivy and bamboo go in the trash rather than the yard waste pile, and batteries, electronics, paint and chemicals stay out of both carts because a battery can set a collection truck on fire.
The city tells its residents to use the Fairfax County drop-off centers with an ID or utility bill showing the city address, which is the route for electronics, household hazardous waste, glass, compost and any load too big for the curb. The main site is the I-66 Transfer Station at 4618 West Ox Road in Fairfax, with a second household hazardous waste and electronics site at the I-95 Landfill Complex in Lorton. Trash and recycling drop-off runs seven days, while the electronics and hazardous waste area opens six days and closes on Wednesday, so check the hours before you load the car. The county publishes its residential item charges and may ask for proof of residency at the gate.
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.
