A day to get it gone.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Arrange to have the TV outside before pickup.
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.

Throwing electronics in the trash is illegal in Colorado, so a television, computer, monitor or phone goes to a recycler instead. The Larimer County Landfill recycles electronics by weight, and the City's Timberline Recycling Center takes them for a per-item fee on top of its entry fee.
City cost & eligibility
From $0.65 per pound for laptops, central processing units and tablets at the Larimer County Landfill electronics recycling area, with a higher published per-pound rate for other residential electronics. Residential electronics brought to the Larimer County Landfill; the Timberline Recycling Center charges a per-item fee for each device instead, added to its entry fee.
When & how
Electronics recycling at the landfill runs Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Timberline Recycling Center takes hard-to-recycle material during the center's posted hours, so confirm the current hours before loading a vehicle.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data and keep devices whole. Treat anything with a circuit board as electronic waste rather than scrap metal, because the City drops those items into the electronic waste stream with fees attached.
Hazardous waste arrives boxed and upright, with no container over five gallons
The household hazardous waste facility takes up to thirty gallons per vehicle, measured by the size of the containers rather than how full they are, which is roughly four medium moving boxes. No single container may be larger than five gallons, up to ten fluorescent bulbs are taken per visit, and material has to arrive in non-leaking labeled containers, packaged upright in boxes rather than trash bags or trash cans.
The hazardous waste facility is closed to the public every Wednesday
Household hazardous waste is accepted Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and the facility is closed to the public on Wednesday, when the site is reserved for business waste by appointment. Household material from Larimer County residents is free, and waste from another county has to go to that county's own program.
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 Fort Collins.
How much does TV removal cost in Fort Collins?+
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 Fort Collins?+
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 does a Fort Collins television go?+
A television is electronic waste and cannot go in the trash under Colorado law. The Larimer County Landfill recycles it by weight, and the Timberline Recycling Center accepts it for a per-item fee added to its entry fee, with an older tube television priced higher than a flat screen of the same size.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Fort Collins?+
Fort Collins contracts with Republic Services to collect curbside trash, recycling and seasonal yard trimmings from single family homes and small multi-family buildings of seven units or fewer. A household can opt out and use a different hauler that holds a City license, and it pays an opt-out fee to the City instead of the contract charge.Official guidance
Is household hazardous waste free in Larimer County?+
Yes for Larimer County residents. Typical household hazardous waste such as paint, lawn chemicals, automotive fluids, cleaners and batteries is accepted at no charge at the facility on South Taft Hill Road, with a thirty gallon per vehicle limit and no container larger than five gallons. Waste from another county has to go to that county's own program.Official guidance
Can electronics go in the trash in Colorado?+
