The old setup can go
You’ve moved on. Your old electronics haven’t.

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.

Televisions, computers and other electronics are collected with the regular garbage once the town's notification form has been submitted. The same route covers anything with a cord or motor.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Electronics are set out through the town notification process at no separate charge for Cheektowaga households.
When & how
Electronics are collected on the household's normal garbage day after the notification is filed.
Get it ready
Complete the Electronics or Metal Pick-Up notification first, then place the item at the curb with the regular trash. Keep the item out no earlier than 3:00 p.m. the day before collection.
Cheektowaga allows garbage and bulky items at the curb from 3:00 p.m. the day before collection until 6:00 a.m. on collection day. Putting trash out before 3:00 p.m. the previous day is an ordinance violation and can bring a fine, so timing matters more here than the collection itself.
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.
The required step before a television, computer, appliance or any corded or motorized item can go out with the regular trash.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Submitting the notification does not add a fee. The item is then collected on the regular garbage day.
Arrange it
Submit the town's Notification of Metal Pick-Up form before the collection day, then set the item at the curb with the regular garbage. Call 716-686-3426 if the item does not clearly fit the electronics, appliance or metal description.
The item travels on the normal collection day, so the standard 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. set-out window applies.
Cheektowaga does not publish a single residential drop-off site for household items, because the town route is curbside collection on your regular day, combined with the electronics and metal notification for appliances and anything with a cord or motor. Branches beyond the curbside bundle limit can go to the Highway yard during business hours if you call 716-686-3450 first, and hazardous material such as paint, pool chemicals and batteries waits for an Erie County hazardous waste drop-off day. Call the Sanitation Department at 716-686-3426 if you need to confirm how a specific item will be handled. Sanitation Department and RecyclingHighway Department

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Electronics removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Cheektowaga.
How much does electronics pickup cost in Cheektowaga?+
A computer monitor is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Choose the actual devices and quantities to see your combined price online. A separate desktop tower and monitor are separate items. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; review the total and any applicable tax before payment.
Can you pick up old electronics today in Cheektowaga?+
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.
How do I get rid of an old television or computer?+
File the Electronics or Metal Pick-Up notification with the town, then put the television or computer at the curb with your regular garbage on collection day. The town takes electronics, appliances, metal and anything with a cord or motor on that same route.Official guidance
Does it cost extra to put out a television or appliance?+
No. Cheektowaga collects electronics, appliances, metal and anything with a cord or motor with the regular garbage at no separate charge once you file the town's notification form. The one town charge that comes up often is a replacement or extra tote, which is a separate purchase arranged through the Sanitation Department, and the current tote prices are published on the town page. Dropcurb pricing for a pickup is shown at checkout and is separate from these municipal charges.Official guidance
What is the electronics and metal notification?+
It is the town form you submit before setting out electronics, appliances, metal, or anything with a cord or motor. The item then goes to the curb with your regular garbage on collection day. Skipping the notification is the most common reason these items sit uncollected.Official guidance
What time can I put items at the curb?+
Not before 3:00 p.m. the day before your collection day, and everything should be out before 6:00 a.m. on collection day. Putting trash out earlier than 3:00 p.m. the previous day is an ordinance violation and can bring a fine.Official guidance
