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.

Televisions and other electronic waste stay out of the recycling cart and off the large item list. Livonia routes them to the year round hazardous and electronic waste drop-off at ERG Environmental Services on Merriman Road.
City cost & eligibility
$5 per 100 pounds of household hazardous waste or electronic waste at ERG Environmental Services, with a higher per pound rate above 100 pounds and separate per pound rates for latex paint and mercury devices. City of Livonia residents who verify residency at the receiving door, weekday drop-off during posted hours.
When & how
Weekday drop-off at ERG Environmental Services, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is no curbside collection day for a television.
Get it ready
Take the batteries out of a device before the drop-off, since the same site accepts them. Keep screens whole and dry. Household batteries have their own free drop-offs at the Bennett Civic Center Library and the Kirksey Recreation Center, while a damaged, swollen, cracked or leaking battery goes to ERG instead.
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.

Year round hazardous and electronic waste drop-off
A household with a television, computer, printer, chemicals, paint, needles or batteries that the cart and the curb cannot take.
Cost & conditions
$5 per 100 pounds, with a higher per pound rate above 100 pounds and separate per pound rates for latex paint and mercury devices. City of Livonia residents who verify residency at the door, weekday drop-off during posted hours.
Arrange it
Go to ERG Environmental Services at 13040 Merriman Road, just north of Industrial Drive, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Residency is verified and a no-touch receiving protocol applies.
Take the batteries out of a device before the drop-off. Used needles must be in a hard, rigid container. A damaged, swollen, cracked or leaking battery belongs here rather than at the library battery drops.
Self hauling in Livonia has three published destinations, and each one takes a different kind of load. Household clutter, furniture, carpeting, small amounts of building material and up to ten tires go to the Refuse Disposal Site at 32300 Glendale Avenue, which is open to Livonia households only, charges per vehicle in cash at the entrance gate, and publishes a separate winter schedule. Clean wood, brush, pallets, plywood, logs and stumps go next door to the Mid-Michigan Recycling Center at 32700 Glendale Street, free for a Livonia resident with a Livonia driver's license and proof of residency in a personally owned vehicle. Televisions, computers, chemicals, paint, needles and batteries go to ERG Environmental Services at 13040 Merriman Road on weekdays, where residency is verified and the published charge is by weight. Cardboard larger than three feet by three feet, larger scrap metal and vehicle batteries can also go to the Drop-Off Recycling Center on the south side of Glendale Avenue. Confirm the season before you load, because the refuse site changes hours, and confirm the drop-off center terms because no charge is published for it.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Livonia.
How much does TV removal cost in Livonia?+
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 Livonia?+
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 television go in Livonia?+
The city routes televisions to household hazardous and electronic waste drop-off rather than the cart, and names ERG Environmental Services at 13040 Merriman Road as the year round site. Drop-off runs Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., residency is verified, and the published charge is by weight rather than by device.Official guidance
Where can batteries and small electronics go?+
Household batteries are free to drop at the Bennett Civic Center Library and the Kirksey Recreation Center, where alkaline, lithium-ion and NiCad batteries are sorted for recycling. A damaged, swollen, cracked or leaking battery must go to ERG at 13040 Merriman Road, Suite 200. Computers, printers and other electronics go to ERG with the household hazardous waste.Official guidance
What should I do if my trash was missed in Livonia?+
Create a service request through Report a Concern or call Public Works at 734-466-2655. Carts and large items need to be out by 7 a.m. on collection day, and in a holiday week the rest of the schedule runs one day late.Official guidance
