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.

Cathode ray tubes are on the Massachusetts disposal ban list, so an older television or monitor cannot go in the trash or the recycling cart. Lowell publishes no municipal electronics drop-off and directs residents to an outside source such as a hauler or a private recycler.
City cost & eligibility
Cathode ray tubes are banned from disposal in Massachusetts, and Lowell publishes no municipal electronics drop-off, so confirm a hauler or private recycler and its charge before the device leaves the property. The Solid Waste and Recycling Office on 978-674-4309 can point to the current local option.
When & how
Confirm a hauler or recycler that takes the device before setting anything outside, because neither the trash cart nor the green recycling cart can take it.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, phones and drives before the device leaves the house. Keep the set or monitor out of both carts and out of a general bulky pile until the receiving service confirms that it takes the item.
Massachusetts waste bans still apply to a bulky load
Mattresses and box springs, textiles, white goods, cathode ray tubes, construction material, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, treated and untreated wood and whole tires are all banned from disposal in Massachusetts. Those items cannot go in the trash cart or the recycling cart, and the city tells residents to contact an outside source such as Waste Management or another private hauler.
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.
Lowell does not run its own drop-off centre for household bulky material, so self-haul means a scheduled pickup through Waste Management or a private hauler, or a reuse or donation stop. Massachusetts waste bans matter here: mattresses and box springs, textiles, white goods such as refrigerators and washers, cathode ray tubes, construction material, metals, wood and whole tires cannot be disposed of as ordinary waste, so those loads need a hauler that handles them properly. The city lists donation and reuse options around Lowell, including a retail store that takes mattresses and box springs, a reuse store for building material, and textile and household goods charities, and it holds registered household hazardous waste days for paint, chemicals and similar products. Confirm the receiving service and its charge before anything leaves the property, and keep the set-out in front of your own address no earlier than the day before collection.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lowell.
How much does TV removal cost in Lowell?+
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 Lowell?+
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 do televisions and electronics go in Lowell?+
Not in the trash or the recycling cart. Cathode ray tubes are on the Massachusetts disposal ban list, and the city states that many banned items cannot go in the recycling cart and that residents have to contact an outside source such as Waste Management or another private hauler. Confirm the receiving service and its charge before the device goes outside.Official guidance
When is trash and recycling collected in Lowell?+
Trash is collected every week and recycling every other week. The city asks residents to refer to the collection schedule on the city homepage for the day and week that apply to the address, and to have the carts out the night before with the lids closed. The hauler asks for the container on the street with the wheels against the curb by 7 a.m. and removed the same day, and when a holiday falls on a collection day the route moves one day later for the rest of the week.Official guidance
Which items are banned from the trash in Massachusetts?+
Asphalt pavement, brick and concrete, cathode ray tubes, clean gypsum wallboard, commercial food material, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, glass, metal and plastic containers, lead acid batteries, leaves and yard waste, mattresses, recyclable paper and cardboard, textiles, treated and untreated wood, white goods and whole tires. Lowell adds that many of them cannot go in the recycling cart, so the route is an outside source such as a hauler or a private recycler.Official guidance
