Updates through the handoff.
Get a booking confirmation, a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. Your retired equipment is one less thing to keep track of.
A separate monitor and tower count separately. Small devices and cables have their own box option. Choose what is actually leaving so your price matches the pickup.
Monitor, desktop or laptop.
Choose Computer monitor for each separate display. Desktop computer covers one tower or one all-in-one computer. A laptop is its own item. Add only the devices going.
Printer or office copier.
A printer with a built-in scanner belongs under Printer. A floor-standing copy machine belongs under Office copier. The shape matters more than the brand.
A box of smaller electronics.
Use Box of electronics for small devices, cables and chargers together in one box. For a large or heavy box, unusual contents or separate batteries, send a photo and confirm the fit before booking.

E-scrap and batteries are collected at the free Spring Clean Up Day, and the city publishes no other electronics route.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Paducah and McCracken County residents at the free Spring Clean Up Day, which accepts batteries and e-scrap along with household hazardous waste and medications; no other electronics route or fee is published.
When & how
Take the devices and batteries to the Spring Clean Up Day at the Republic Services transfer station, 829 Burnett Street, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., and bring identification for the residency check.
Get it ready
Wipe stored data from computers and drives, keep batteries separate from other material, keep electronics and batteries out of the rollout container because batteries are on the unacceptable contents list, and expect medical waste, commercial waste and radioactive items to be refused at the event.
City containers, early mornings and four feet of clearance
Paducah residential solid waste costs 28.00 a month for one rollout and includes yard waste collection and curbside recycling for households that sign up, with fees on the monthly water bill. Only city-issued containers are serviced, crews run from 4 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on residential and commercial routes, and containers must be out by 4 a.m. on the collection day, so the city recommends setting them out the night before. Collection runs Tuesday through Friday with recycling the same day, and holidays may push a route to Monday. Containers go within two feet of the roadside edge with handles facing away from the street, and the side-arm truck cannot service a container with a stationary object such as a car, mailbox, utility pole, tree, shrub or fence within four feet. Overfilled containers may interrupt service, and contents such as paint, gasoline, solvents, oil, batteries, tires, bricks, blocks and construction material stop the collection altogether.
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.
A Paducah or McCracken County household with appliances, tires, e-scrap, batteries, household chemicals, medications or household trash to clear out.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free for Paducah and McCracken County residents who bring identification such as a driver's licence to verify residency.
Arrange it
Take the material to the Republic Services transfer station at 829 Burnett Street on the event day, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine.
One day a year, county residents only with identification, tires capped at eight per resident with no heavy equipment, solid, rubber track or foam filled tires, appliances needing a coolant or Freon free tag, hazardous waste labelled and in its original container, and medical waste, commercial waste and radioactive items refused.

Cost & conditions

City of Paducah residential accounts, with the fee included on the monthly water bill and a published fee schedule effective July 1 2026.
Arrange it
Call Public Works on 270-444-8511 to find out the collection day, confirm whether a rollout container is needed and report a lost or stolen container, and use the interactive map to look up the day for an address.

Self hauling in Paducah runs through the Compost Facility and the annual Spring Clean Up Day, because the city's own trucks handle the routine work and the pay pile route is a request rather than a drop-off. Residents can take brush, leaves, grass clippings and a stripped Christmas tree to the Compost Facility at 1560 North 8th Street at no charge, checking that facility's page for its hours, while a yard pile larger than a small car or a load of large limbs, stumps and trunks needs a request to Public Works on 270-444-8511 or through the MyPaducah Brush Pickup option and may carry a fee of 150, with some pieces too large for the compost grinder and possibly not collected. Once a year the city and McCracken County hold a free Spring Clean Up Day at the Republic Services transfer station at 829 Burnett Street, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. for residents who bring identification; it accepts household trash, major appliances tagged coolant or Freon free, up to eight tires per resident, household hazardous waste that is labelled and in its original container, ammunition, prescription medications, batteries and e-scrap, while refusing medical waste, commercial waste and radioactive items. Households that cannot use the event can still ask Public Works about a pay pile, which starts at the published minimum fee, is added to the water bill and is collected on Thursdays and Fridays by knuckleboom truck after a supervisor reviews the pile.

Does computer removal include my monitor and printer?+

Do you erase data from old computers?+

If a device cannot be erased or contains sensitive business information, arrange suitable data handling before giving it away. Completion photos confirm the pickup, not data destruction.Official guidance
Can I book one box of old cables and small electronics?+
Yes. Box of electronics is an existing option for small devices, cables and chargers together in one box. A monitor, desktop computer and printer each have their own item option. Send a photo before booking for a large or heavy box, unusual contents or separate batteries so we can confirm the fit.

Batteries are on the list of contents that interrupt ordinary rollout service, so they never belong in the garbage container.Official guidance
