A day to get it gone.

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.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Dropcurb does not remove TVs from walls or do indoor carrying. Arrange the help you need before pickup day, including the trip down interior stairs or through an elevator.

Choose a permitted outdoor spot.
Use a stable, accessible location with a clear path for loading. Keep the TV separate from anything staying. Check building rules before placing it in a shared pickup area.

Electronics are not a cart item, and the district handles them through a separate computer component and television recycling programme with drop-off sites across Lake County rather than through the monthly hazardous waste events.
City cost & eligibility
The district names the electronics programme and its drop-off sites but publishes the locations and any charges on its programme page rather than the hazardous waste page, so confirm the site, the accepted devices and the cost before dropping a television or computer off.
When & how
Check the district's computer component and TV recycling page for the nearest drop-off point and its opening days, because the monthly hazardous waste events run on published dates and are a different service.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the city cart because the carts are for kitchen garbage, and note that the monthly county events accept items such as batteries, oil based paint, solvents and propane rather than household electronic devices.
Lake County Solid Waste Management holds household hazardous waste collections across the county monthly from March through October, restricted to Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at Hammond Public Works, 601 Conkey St., on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Accepted material includes antifreeze, automotive fluids, household batteries, fuels, oil based paint, pesticides, propane tanks, solvents, sharps in a rigid container and sealed thermometers, while latex paint, asbestos, acetylene tanks and auto batteries are refused, and paper shredding is offered with a four bag limit.
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 Hammond.
How much does TV removal cost in Hammond?+
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 Hammond?+
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 can a Hammond household take a television?+
Lake County Solid Waste Management runs a separate computer component and television recycling programme that lists drop-off sites across the county, and the city directs banned material away from the carts entirely. Check the district's electronics programme for the nearest location and any charge, and note that the monthly household hazardous waste collections from March through October are a different service, with the Hammond event at 601 Conkey St. running on September 12 from 9am to 2pm.Official guidance
Where do Hammond chemicals and electronics go?+
Chemicals go to a Lake County Solid Waste Management collection event, held monthly from March through October for Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at 601 Conkey St. on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Electronics and appliances have their own district programmes for televisions, computers, fridges, microwaves and washers, with drop-off sites published separately, so check those pages before a trip.Official guidance
