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.

Electronic waste is refused in the Hayward trash cart, and the city guide lists up to two e-waste items per bulky appointment at no fee alongside the county household hazardous waste facility on West Winton Avenue, which accepts electronics free for county residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free to Alameda County residents at the Hayward facility with no appointment and identification at the gate, and the city guide's bulky item list separately allows two e-waste items per appointment at no fee. Businesses use a separate service.
When & how
Go to 2091 West Winton Ave. on Thursday or Friday from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. or Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., avoiding the published closures.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of every cart, because the hauler names electronic and medical waste among the materials refused in the trash container. Wipe personal data, stay in the vehicle with the items in an unlocked trunk, and stay within 125 pounds or 15 gallons per visit in containers no larger than five gallons.
Place the cart on the street with the wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day and bring it in the same day. Keep it at least three feet from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles, keep carts at least two feet apart from each other, and store them on private property and out of view from the street no later than midnight on collection day under the municipal code. Bag all trash and close the lid, because overflow can draw an extra charge or be left behind.
Batteries and motor oil go beside the recycle cart
Household batteries go in a sealed plastic bag next to the recycling cart, and motor oil jugs and filters go next to the cart as well for single-family homes, which is the set-out the city residential guide shows. These are curbside conveniences rather than cart contents, and the county facility on West Winton Avenue takes batteries, paint, chemicals and electronics if a trip is easier.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hayward.
How much does TV removal cost in Hayward?+
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 Hayward?+
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.
