A day to get it gone.
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date shown at checkout. Arrange to have the TV outside before pickup.
You’ll know when it’s gone.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the job is done. With your TV outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home for pickup.
The TV’s type and size determine which item to choose. A new model and an old model can use the same option if their shape and screen size match.
Flat-screen TVs
Measure the screen diagonally, corner to corner, without the frame. Choose under 42 inches or 42 inches and larger. A TV measuring exactly 42 inches belongs to the larger option.
Tube TVs
An older tube or CRT television has curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Choose Tube TV even if its screen is small. A rear-projection TV is different; send a photo before booking so we can check the fit.
TV stands and other electronics
The TV price covers the television. Add a media console, computer monitor or other item separately if it is going too. Choose only what you want removed and review the combined price.

Electronics have three city routes and one free county route. Garland residents can take computer equipment, wires and cables, appliances, audio visual, network and communications equipment and office equipment to eRecycler on Cavalier Drive, bring a listed set of items to the Transfer Station by appointment, or use the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center, where batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics are free with proof of residency.
City cost & eligibility
The city states that batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics are recycled at no cost at the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center with proof of residency in the form of a driver's license or current utility bill, while it publishes no rate for the Transfer Station appointment and names a private recycler that sets its own terms. Confirm the route and any fee before the load goes out, using the county center on 214-553-1765 for its hours or the Sanitation Department on 972-205-3500.
When & how
Book an appointment for the Transfer Station route through the city's online booking page, or drive to eRecycler on Cavalier Drive, or to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas. Call 214-553-1765 to check the center's hours.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before a computer, phone or console leaves the house, keep electronics out of the green cart because the city bars them there, and keep them out of the blue recycling cart. At the Transfer Station appointment, monitors, televisions and alkaline batteries are refused, so those items have to use another route.
Televisions and monitors have no city drop-off. The Transfer Station electronics appointment refuses both, Goodwill no longer accepts televisions, and the city points residents to the state television and computer recycling programs, the Dell and Goodwill RECONNECT program for other equipment, and retailers such as Staples, Best Buy and Office Depot.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no city rate or city drop-off for a television or monitor, so confirm the route and any fee with the Sanitation Department at 972-205-3500, or use one of the programs the city names, which set their own terms.
When & how
Check the program the city names before the set moves, because the Transfer Station appointment will refuse a monitor or television if it arrives there.
Get it ready
Keep the screen out of the green cart and the blue recycling cart. If the unit is going to a retailer or a manufacturer program, confirm the accepted size and any fee first, and if it is going to a state program, check that the program covers the brand.
Household chemicals never go in either cart. Paint, pesticides, fertilizer and pool chemicals, along with batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics, go to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas, which is free for a Garland resident with proof of residency. Televisions and monitors are refused at the Transfer Station electronics appointment, so those use a state program or a retailer.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Garland.
How much does TV removal cost in Garland?+
A flat-screen TV under 42 inches is $79 as the first item and $19 as an additional item. Larger flat screens and tube TVs have their own prices. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Choose the type that matches your TV and review your total, including any applicable tax, before payment.
Can I get same-day TV pickup in Garland?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup. Choose from the dates offered at checkout and have the TV outside according to your confirmation. We text you when your hauler is on the way and provide photos when the pickup is done.
Will Dropcurb remove my TV from the wall or carry it downstairs?+
You arrange unmounting, disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Dropcurb starts at an accessible outdoor location, where we load your TV and take it away. If you need help removing a mounted TV or moving a heavy tube TV outside, arrange that separately before your pickup day.
Do you pick up old tube or CRT televisions?+
Yes. Choose Tube TV for an older television with curved glass and a deep, heavy body. Its price is $249 as the first item and $249 as an additional item. A rear-projection television is a different item; send a photo before booking rather than choosing the tube-TV option.
Does my old TV have to work?+
Your TV does not need to turn on for removal. Choose its type and size and arrange to have it outside before pickup. A non-working TV and a TV with exposed broken glass are different situations; send a photo of unusual damage so we can confirm the plan before you book.
Where do computers and electronics go in Garland?+
Garland residents can take computer equipment, wires and cables, appliances, audio visual, network and communications equipment and office equipment to eRecycler at 3902 Cavalier Drive, or bring computers, laptops, cell phones, cameras, printers, copiers, fax machines, office phones, chargers, power supplies, video game systems, cables and small appliances to the Transfer Station by appointment, where monitors, televisions and alkaline batteries are refused. Batteries of all kinds, fluorescent light tubes, computers, cell phones and small electronics are also free at the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road with proof of residency.Official guidance
Where do batteries go in Garland?+
To the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas, where the city says batteries of all kinds are recycled at no cost for a Garland resident who shows a driver's license or current utility bill. Alkaline batteries are refused at the Transfer Station electronics appointment, so the county center is the route for those. Call 214-553-1765 to check the center's hours.Official guidance
Where do old televisions go in Garland?+
Not to the Transfer Station electronics appointment, because the city states that monitors, televisions and alkaline batteries are refused there. Goodwill no longer accepts televisions either. The city points residents to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality television and computer recycling programs, to the Dell and Goodwill RECONNECT program for other equipment, and to retailers such as Staples, Best Buy and Office Depot, so confirm the route and any fee before the set moves.Official guidance
