Does Cranston pick up electronics?

City program details: Cranston bulky waste pickup is free only during March and September and requires scheduling with Waste Management at 1-800-972-4545. Service is limited to one trip with up to three items per household and excludes mattresses, construction debris, TVs/e-waste, and white goods. Regular trash and recycling are once weekly curbside collection.
Cranston limits free bulky waste pickup to March and September, with one scheduled trip and up to three items per household, and excludes mattresses, electronics, white goods, and construction debris. That creates a major gap for move-outs, renovation cleanups, and last-minute HOA or landlord deadlines. In a dense Providence County market where homes turn over year-round, waiting for seasonal municipal slots is rarely practical when a couch, mattress, or appliance needs to be gone now.
Dropcurb picks up electronics same-day in Cranston for $99 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.
Cranston bulk pickup is seasonal, limited, and excludes major item categories

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.
