Don't want to haul it yourself? Get a junk removal quote
Junk removal crews load and dispose of it for you, usually priced by how much of the truck you fill.
Tip: get two or three quotes from local junk removal companies, and ask whether the price includes the dump fee and labor.
Bigger project? Estimate the dumpster size you need.
General tips for electronics
About half of U.S. states have electronics recycling laws, and several of them ban TVs, monitors and computers from landfills or household trash. Even where it is legal, old CRT TVs and monitors contain lead, so recycling is the better route.
Other options. Manufacturer and retailer take-back programs accept many devices, some for free. In states with e-waste laws, there are free collection sites funded by manufacturers; the Electronics Recycling Coordination Clearinghouse lists state programs. EPA's electronics page explains donation and certified recyclers. Wipe personal data first.
Before you go. Ask whether there is a fee for TVs or monitors (CRTs often cost more), and whether the site takes electronics every day or only at events.
