Old computer, spare monitor, printer that’s ready to go, gone from the curb. Choose your electronics, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
Keep the setup you use. Clear out the one you don’t.
The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.
The new laptop is working. The old monitor, tower and printer are still taking up a corner. Give the equipment you no longer use a pickup day, with the price settled before anyone arrives.
An exact price for your actual items.
Choose each device and see the total online. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. No visit just to find out the price.
A day to get it done.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Prepare your devices and have them outside before pickup.
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.

Salisbury will not collect electronics on any city route. Televisions, computers and electronics are refused in the bulky and Spruce Up lists, and the city sends residents to the Rowan County Recycling Center on (704) 216-8589 instead, with a call first instruction for hazardous items, paint, oil, gas and liquids. Lithium-ion batteries are moving to their own collection bins in fall 2026.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no fee for electronics because it does not collect them, and the county centre sets its own terms. Call the Rowan County Recycling Center on (704) 216-8589 to confirm what it takes, when it is open and whether anything is charged before a screen or computer leaves the house.
When & how
Call the county recycling centre first, then deliver the electronics in the way it directs. Do not set a television or computer at the curb on any collection day.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers and phones, keep cables and remotes with the device, tape the terminals on any lithium-ion battery and keep it in a leakproof open container rather than the cart, and keep electronics out of the green trash cart and the blue recycling cart.
Garbage and yard waste are collected every week and recycling every other week, all on the same weekday, and the carts go to the roadside by 7 a.m. and come back in by midnight. Put the cart within two feet of the roadside with the handle facing the house, leave three feet between it and anything else such as another cart, a mailbox or a pole, and keep it out of the street. Garbage is bagged inside the green city cart, and regular collection runs on every holiday except Christmas.
Tires, rims, batteries, vehicle parts, building materials, paint, bricks, concrete, lumber, shingles and carpet are all refused by the Solid Waste Division, and the bulky and Spruce Up lists add televisions, computers, electronics, hazardous items, pianos and hospital beds. Building material goes to the Rowan County Landfill and electronics, paint, oils, gas and liquids go to the Rowan County Recycling Center, which the city asks residents to call first.
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.
City of Salisbury Public Works Department with Rowan County drop-off sites
Use the Rowan County sites for what the city refuses
A household with electronics, paint, oil, gas, liquids or building material that the city will not collect on any route.
Cost & conditions
The county sets its own terms and the city publishes no rates for either site, only the phone numbers. Confirm the accepted list, the hours and any charge before loading, and call the county recycling centre first about hazardous items because that is what the city instructs.
Arrange it
Call the Rowan County Recycling Center on (704) 216-8589 about electronics and hazardous items, and the Rowan County Landfill on (704) 278-2211 about building material, then take the load to whichever lane they direct.
These are county facilities rather than city services, addresses and hours are given out by phone rather than on the city page, and up to five tires without rims can also go to the landfill on Campbell Road in Woodleaf at any time.

Can you pick up old electronics today in Salisbury?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates shown at checkout and have the prepared items outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done. The booking is for a day, not an exact arrival time.
Does computer removal include my monitor and printer?+
Desktop computer covers one tower or one all-in-one computer. Add a separate monitor, printer or laptop as its own item if it is going too. For small devices, cables and chargers together, choose Box of electronics and check the description before booking.
Do you erase data from old computers?+
Data erasure and certified data destruction are not included in Dropcurb removal. Back up the information you need, then follow the manufacturer’s sign-out and reset instructions before pickup. 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.
Where do televisions and computers go in Salisbury?+
To the Rowan County Recycling Center on (704) 216-8589.
