You’ll know when it’s gone.
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.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Dropcurb does not remove TVs from walls or do indoor carrying. Arrange the help you need before pickup day, including the trip down interior stairs or through an elevator.

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.

Haul it to the county drop-off centers
A city household that would rather not wait for the truck, has electronics or hazardous waste to clear out, or has a load bigger than the curb service handles.
Cost & conditions
From $39 for the minimum charge on a bulk or unbagged residential load at the I-66 Transfer Station, with mixed waste at $98 per ton, bagged trash at $21 for one to five bags or $28 for six to ten bags, and flat per item charges of $17 for a sofa, love seat, recliner, chair, dresser, desk, dining table, carpet or mattress and box spring, $15 for an appliance that needs refrigerant or capacitor removal, $11 for a small single item and $14 per passenger tire. Residential loads at the county centers, which the city directs its residents to with proof of a city address. The published residential schedule is written for county households, and separated recyclables, household electronics and household hazardous waste are taken free of charge at the same sites.
Arrange it
Load the car or truck, bring an ID or utility bill with the city address, and follow the site lanes: recyclables and food scraps in their own area, electronics and hazardous waste at their station, and weighed material through the scales.
The electronics and hazardous waste area at I-66 is closed on Wednesday, tires are capped at ten passenger or light truck tires per household, brick, concrete, dirt and rock are limited to small daily amounts and priced higher than mixed bulk, and commercial hazardous waste and commercial drop-off are refused.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Fairfax.
How much does TV removal cost in Fairfax?+
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 Fairfax?+
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.
Where do Fairfax televisions and computers go?+
To the county e-cycling station at the I-66 Transfer Station, 4618 West Ox Road, where household electronics are taken without charge. The list covers televisions, computers, monitors, printers, scanners, hard drives, keyboards, mice, cables, phones, cameras, gaming devices, VCRs, audio equipment and solar panels. Take the batteries out, wipe personal data first, stay within ten large items for one household drop-off, and check the hours before the trip because the electronics area is closed on Wednesday.
