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.

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.

Televisions, monitors, computers, keyboards and printers are collected curbside by appointment, and all household electronics are also taken at the DPW Yard, where only 2 televisions per household per year are allowed.
City cost & eligibility
No electronics fee is published, so confirm the appointment and any charge with the city. The disposal guide gives (617) 376-7556 for a call by 3 p.m. at least 2 full business days before the regular trash day for a screen, and the recycling page routes scheduling to Capitol Waste Services at (855) 533-3400.
When & how
Book the curbside collection and put the device out on the regular trash day, or take it to the DPW Yard at 55 Sea Street during its published hours. The yard takes only 2 televisions per household per year.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers, drives and phones before they leave the house, and keep devices out of the single stream recycling container. Needles and sharps never go in a device or a cart: the recycling page routes them to the Clean Harbors Sharps Management programme on (855) 633-9783, and household hazardous material waits for one of the city's two hazard days.
The DPW Yard behind 55 Sea Street is for Quincy residents only and opens Monday through Friday 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM and Saturday 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM within the 2026 season window that ends December 5, 2026. It accepts yard waste, single stream recycling, textiles, electronics, scrap metal, appliances, books, CDs, DVDs and mercury items, but it is not a landfill and refuses household trash, wood, tires, oil and gasoline, latex and oil paint, chemicals and construction debris. A valid Massachusetts driver's licence is required, and commercial plates are barred without prior written approval from the Commissioner's Office.
The city holds a household hazardous waste drop-off day twice a year at the DPW Yard, and the next scheduled date is still to be announced. The event is for Quincy residents only with a Massachusetts driver's licence showing a Quincy address, material stays in its original container with caps tightened, and chemicals are never mixed. Accepted material includes oil-based paint, fuels, poisons, pool chemicals, solvents, mercury items and Ni-Cad and lithium batteries, which are also taken year round at the yard. Tires, latex paint, asbestos, ammunition, prescription medicines and syringes are refused.
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.

Arrange it
Call ahead, then put the item out with the regular trash on the day the booking covers. The disposal guide asks for a call by 3 p.m. one full business day before for most appliances and 2 full business days for a refrigerator or a screen.
Refrigerators and dishwashers are not accepted at the DPW Yard, and the yard takes only 2 televisions per household per year, so a second screen has to go through the curbside booking.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Quincy.
How much does TV removal cost in Quincy?+
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 Quincy?+
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 Quincy?+
Both routes are published. Call (617) 376-7556 by 3 p.m. at least 2 full business days before your regular trash day and put a television, monitor, computer, keyboard or printer out on that day, or take it to the DPW Yard at 55 Sea Street, where all home, entertainment and business electronics are accepted but only 2 televisions per household per year are taken. Wipe personal data before handover.Official guidance
Who runs waste collection in Quincy?+
The city's Department of Public Works runs it through the Waste and Recycling Division, and Capitol Waste Services collects weekly curbside trash and recycling for one- to eight-family dwellings and condominiums, Monday through Friday. The division office is at 55 Sea Street on (617) 376-1957, and missed collections are reported to Capitol Waste Services at (855) 533-3400.

Carpet has to be cut into 3 foot lengths, rolled and tied, with no more than 5 rolls at a time, and wood goes out only when it is bundled and tied, kept to 1 to 3 inches in diameter and under 3 feet long, in a barrel under 50 lbs.Official guidance
