Does Pontiac pick up electronics?
Same-day junk removal in Pontiac starts at $79 with Dropcurb, and you can book online in about 60 seconds without waiting for an in-home estimate.

Book fast, leave items curbside, and a local hauler can often pick up the same day.
City program details: Pontiac sanitation collection runs Monday through Friday. Priority Waste handles service, residents can set out only two bulk items per week, mattresses must be wrapped, and yard waste is seasonal (April 1 through November 30).
Pontiac already has city-contracted collection, but the rules leave real gaps for bigger cleanouts. The city sanitation page says residents get only two bulk items per week, mattresses must be wrapped, and yard-waste pickup is limited to April through November, so many mixed piles still sit. In a working-city market with frequent apartment and single-family turnover, those limits create exactly the situations where a same-day curbside option is more practical than waiting for the next municipal cycle.
Dropcurb picks up electronics same-day in Pontiac for $99 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.
Pontiac allows two bulk items weekly, but real cleanouts rarely fit that limit.
Pontiac residents can use municipal bulk service, but practical jobs often involve mixed furniture, mattresses, and appliances that exceed weekly set-out limits. Once you add mattress-wrapping and seasonal yard-waste rules, many households still need a faster all-at-once option. Dropcurb closes that gap with same-day curbside pickup starting at $79.

What happens to your electronics after pickup
Electronics are recycled at R2- or e-Stewards-certified e-waste facilities. Devices are disassembled and sorted: circuit boards are processed for gold, silver, copper, and palladium recovery. Screens are separated for glass and lead processing. Plastics are shredded and recycled. Hard drives, SSDs, and other storage media are physically destroyed (shredded or degaussed) to ensure complete data destruction — no data leaves the facility intact. The $20 e-waste recycling fee covers the cost of certified handling and hazardous material processing.
Why Pontiac residents choose Dropcurb for electronics removal
