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.

Televisions are explicitly refused curbside and are collected instead at the city's shred and recycle event, where recycling a television carries a published charge.
City cost & eligibility
The event page publishes a charge for television recycling and a separate charge for CRT monitors while flat panel monitors are free, but the page still carries a past event date, so confirm the current fee and the next event date with Public Services at 205.978.0150.
When & how
Televisions are not collected at the curb. Take the set to the city's Shred and Recycle Day, held in the City Hall and Civic Center parking lots from 8 a.m. to noon, typically on a Saturday in September, and confirm the current date first because the published page shows an earlier year.
Get it ready
Keep the screen whole, wipe stored data where the set powers on, and leave wooden console televisions at home, because they are refused at the event. Televisions are also refused in the curbside pile.
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.
City of Vestavia Hills Public Services and Amwaste
Shred and Recycle Day
Electronics, televisions, household hazardous waste, paper for shredding and unneeded medications from a Vestavia Hills household.
Cost & conditions
Most items are free at the event, with the city publishing a charge for CRT monitors, a charge for optional hard drive destruction and a charge for television recycling, payable by cash or card. The event page still shows a past date, so confirm the current fee list and date at 205.978.0150.
Arrange it
Bring the material to the parking lots of Vestavia Hills City Hall and the adjacent Civic Center from 8 a.m. to noon, or until capacity is reached, on the date the city publishes for the event, typically a Saturday in September.
Large appliances, wooden console televisions, gas, gas cans, needles, and paint or pesticides outside their original containers are refused, and proof of Vestavia Hills residency is required for hazardous waste disposal.
Vestavia Hills has no city drop-off or landfill, so self-haul is limited to the city's Shred and Recycle Day for electronics, televisions, hazardous waste, paper and medications. Everything else moves through the curbside routes or a debris and bulk request made in Vestavia Hills Connect or by calling Public Services at 205.978.0150. Contractor generated material and construction debris are the contractor's responsibility, and a roll-off container needs a permit from the city.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Vestavia Hills.
How much does TV removal cost in Vestavia Hills?+
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 Vestavia Hills?+
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.
Can a television go out with the trash in Vestavia Hills?+
No. Televisions are on the city's refused list for curbside collection. They are taken at the city's shred and recycle event, where television recycling carries a published charge, and wooden console televisions are not accepted there.Official guidance
Is Vestavia Hills sanitation collection free?+
Sanitation collection is a municipal service included in the payment of property taxes, and the city publishes no separate item charge for the curbside routes or a debris request. Back door service carries a monthly convenience fee, and it is provided at no charge for residents with a certified medical need confirmed by a physician's letter.Official guidance
Where should carts and debris go on collection day?+
Carts go to the curb by 6:30 a.m. with the lid arrows pointing at the street and no more than three feet from the curb, clear of sidewalks, storm drains, gutters, slopes, low lines and anything within six feet of a fixed object. Debris should be within three feet of the curb, and material placed further away is not collected.Official guidance
