One computer setup can be several items.

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.

Electronics, televisions and computers

Accepted with preparation

New York State law prohibits discarding electronics in the trash or in curb recycling, so a television, a computer or another device with a circuit board or cord has to go to a state electronic waste collection site. The city names the county ecopark on Avion Drive and several other sites, and the county states that since January 1, 2023 no entity in the state may charge a consumer to recycle covered electronic equipment.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge. New York State law prohibits any entity from charging a consumer to recycle covered electronic equipment, and the city lists electronic waste collection sites including the county ecopark on Avion Drive and a computer recycling business on Lyell Avenue. Confirm drop-off procedures and hours with the site before the trip.
When & how
Take the device to a New York State electronic waste collection site rather than setting it out for collection. The county ecopark is open Wednesday from 1 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., closed on holidays, and needs no appointment for electronics.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before the device leaves the house, and keep the device out of the trash and out of the curb recycling bin, because the state bans both. The ecopark takes tube and flat screen televisions and monitors whether they are intact or broken, computers and accessories, cell phones and other electronic waste no appointment needed.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

For electronics and chemicals

Electronics never go in the trash or the recycling cart, because New York State law bans both. Take a television, a computer or another device to a state electronic waste collection site such as the county ecopark, and book an appointment for household chemicals. Latex paint less than a third full or already dried is the exception: the city says to add clay-based cat litter, let it harden, and put the can out with the regular refuse.

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 Rochester?

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 Rochester?

To a New York State electronic waste collection site, because state law prohibits putting electronics in the trash or in curb recycling. The county ecopark on Avion Drive takes electronics with no appointment on Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings, the city also lists a computer recycling business on Lyell Avenue and two other services, and the county states that no entity in the state may charge a consumer to recycle covered electronic equipment. Wipe the device before it leaves the house.Official guidance

What will Rochester not collect?

Radioactive, volatile, highly flammable, explosive, biomedical, infectious, toxic or hazardous material, and any waste generated by a contractor rather than the property owner. Electronics cannot go in the trash or in curb recycling because New York State law prohibits it, so a television or computer has to go to a state electronic waste collection site. An overloaded wheeled container is not collected, glass and sharp objects cannot go in plastic bags, and the county ecopark refuses mattresses, household garbage, building materials, alkaline and lead acid batteries, used motor oil and several other categories.Official guidance

What does the Monroe County ecopark take?

Electronics, appliances, scrap metal, rechargeable and button batteries, fluorescent and CFL bulbs, sharps and syringes, pharmaceuticals, paper for shredding, clothing for donation, cooking oil, propane and other gas cylinders, vape pens, fire extinguishers and tires, plus household hazardous waste by appointment. Refused items include mattresses and foam toppers, household garbage, building materials, alkaline and lead acid batteries, used motor oil, asbestos, PVC pipe, radioactive materials, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and Styrofoam food containers. The site is for Monroe County residents, open Wednesday afternoon and Saturday morning.Official guidance
