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.

SeaTac's collection contractor runs a residential curbside special item recycling programme, so electronics and small appliances can go out with the blue recycling cart. The bill payer on record requests the collection, and the items sit on top of or beside the cart on collection day. The published list covers batteries, motor and cooking oil, styrofoam, textiles, small appliances and electronics, fluorescent tubes and bulbs, and empty camping style propane canisters. Small appliances and electronics have to be 2 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet or smaller and under 60 pounds, so a full size television is outside the published limits and has to be checked with the hauler or taken to the City's one day recycling collection event.
City cost & eligibility
The special item programme publishes the accepted items, the set out rules and the size limits but no price, and the City event is a dated programme, so confirm the cost and the next collection date with Recology on 206.767.1166.
When & how
Ask the hauler for the special item collection before the cart day, or take televisions and other electronics to the City's one day recycling collection event at Sunset Park. Anything outside the published size and weight limits has to be arranged with the hauler on 206.767.1166.
Get it ready
Keep electronics and small appliances out of the garbage and recycling carts and erase personal data before handover. Batteries go out in a sealed plastic bag with the ends taped and motor vehicle batteries are refused; motor and cooking oil go in sealed, labelled, leak free clear jugs with screw top lids, up to three gallons per collection for each type; styrofoam blocks have to be clean and free of packing peanuts; textiles go in a clear bag; fluorescent tubes and bulbs are wrapped and bagged with a limit of two per collection; and propane has to be an empty disposable camping cylinder rather than a tank.
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 the load to the Bow Lake station
A household with a construction load, a mixed cleanout or material the hauler will not collect.
Cost & conditions
King County states that fees at its transfer stations vary by material and weight and points to a separate disposal fee page, so confirm the cost before loading. ProviderOne, EBT or ORCA LIFT customers may be eligible for the Cleanup LIFT discount.
Arrange it
Secure the load, drive to the Bow Lake Recycling and Transfer Station in Tukwila, and pay by Visa, Mastercard, Discover, cash or Apple Pay.
The maximum combined vehicle and trailer length is 40 feet, an unsecured load draws a $25 charge under the county code, the recycling area runs different hours from the transfer station building, and a recycling area update project moved some containers from June 22.
Self-hauling from SeaTac runs to the county facility in Tukwila. The Bow Lake Recycling and Transfer Station takes recycling and garbage, charging by material and weight, with payment by Visa, Mastercard, Discover, cash or Apple Pay, a 40 foot combined vehicle and trailer limit, and a $25 charge for any unsecured load under the county code. ProviderOne, EBT and ORCA LIFT customers may qualify for the Cleanup LIFT discount, the recycling area keeps different hours from the transfer station building, and a recycling area project that started on June 22 moved some containers. The city also runs one day recycling collection events at Sunset Park, which have taken packing peanuts, plastic bags, light bulbs, electronics, propane tanks, cardboard, scrap metal, appliances, oil filters, antifreeze, toilets and sinks, with paint handled at a separate event. For most households the cheapest route stays the curbside service: the yearly free collection of up to three bulky items, and the published on-call rates beyond it.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in SeaTac.
How much does electronics pickup cost in SeaTac?+
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 SeaTac?+
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 televisions and computers go in SeaTac?+
Small appliances and electronics up to 2 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet and under 60 pounds can go out for the hauler's special item recycling collection once the bill payer on record requests it, placed on top of or beside the blue recycling cart on collection day. A full size television is outside those limits, so ask Recology on 206.767.1166 or take it to the City's one day recycling collection event at Sunset Park.
