Match the screen

Flat screen or tube? Start with the shape.

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.

Ready for pickup

Ready outside. Taken from there.

Your TV can stay inside while you book. Before pickup, arrange to have it disconnected, taken down if mounted and moved to an accessible outdoor spot.

A pickup day is not an exact arrival appointment. If your building allows only a short loading window, contact us before booking to confirm a workable plan.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.

A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

Text us about your setup
  1. Arrange any unmounting first.

    Dropcurb does not remove TVs from walls or do indoor carrying. Arrange the help you need before pickup day, including the trip down interior stairs or through an elevator.

  2. Choose a permitted outdoor spot.

    Use a stable, accessible location with a clear path for loading. Keep the TV separate from anything staying. Check building rules before placing it in a shared pickup area.

  3. Show us the TV that is going.

    Add a location photo and access notes after booking. Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. For exposed broken glass or unusual damage, send a photo and check with us before booking.

Reviewed · Sources below

Televisions, computers and other electronics

Special rules apply

Electronics have no curbside route and must never go in either bin. The regional authority handles them through special collection events, where fees apply to some items, so the household checks the authority's calendar rather than leaving a device at the curb.

City cost & eligibility
No city page kept here publishes a television or computer route or price. The authority states that electronics must never go in curbside or drop off recycling, that it runs special e-cycling collections rather than a standing service, and that fees apply to some items, so check the authority's events calendar or call the city's 311 line to confirm the next event and its charges before the device leaves the house.
When & how
Watch the authority's events calendar for the next electronics collection and bring the device then. Nothing about this route belongs on the trash day or the recycling week, and the device is not part of the bi-weekly bulk round.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the supercan and out of the recycling bin, wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before handover, and check whether the item is one the authority charges for before loading the car.

Right item.
Right place.

Construction debris, carpet, paint and tanks never ride the bulk round

The prohibited list for bulk and brush covers construction debris, tires without rims, carpet, auto parts, bricks, drywall, pipes, paint, gas tanks, propane tanks and lawn mowers. The self haul gates add their own boundary, refusing commercial or contractor debris and refusing dirt, rocks and concrete, and they accept brush and yard waste only if it is natural wood with no plywood or treated wood.

City of Richmond Department of Public Works Solid Waste Division with the Central Virginia Waste Management Authority

Take electronics to an authority collection event

A household with a television, computer, monitor, printer or another electronic device that has to leave the house.

Cost & conditions
The authority states that fees apply to some items and that collections run as special events rather than a standing service, so check the events calendar or call 311 to confirm the next event and what it charges for the device before going.
Arrange it
Watch the Central Virginia Waste Management Authority events calendar for the next electronics collection and bring the device then. The city of Richmond is one of the localities the authority lists for these events.

There is no curbside or drop off route for electronics, and the authority states plainly that devices must never go in curbside or drop off recycling, so nothing electronic belongs in the supercan, the recycling bin or the bulk pile while the household waits for an event.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Richmond means driving to one of two city gates. The East Richmond Road Convenience Center at 3800 East Richmond Road opens Monday through Friday from 7 am to 3:30 pm and Saturday from 8:30 am to 2 pm, taking household trash and a limited amount of bulk, yard waste and brush in natural wood only, tires without rims up to four, and small appliances, with no commercial vehicles and no contractor material, dirt, rocks or concrete. The Richmond Southside Transfer Station at 3520 North Hopkins Road opens Monday through Friday from 6:30 am to 4:30 pm and Saturday from 8:30 am to 2 pm, is closed Sundays and holidays, answers on 804-232-8488, and takes large bulk items such as furniture, brush and yard waste, appliances and large items, with tires without rims limited to four at a dollar each beyond the allowance and five dollars for tractor trailer tires, plus glass bottles, cardboard, aluminum cans and newspapers for recycling. Appliances, bulk and brush are free for city residents at either site, while the curbside alternative is a 50 dollar appliance collection booked through 311 and a 100 dollar 24-hour bulk request paid by check or money order. Electronics leave the city system entirely: the regional authority runs special collection events instead of a standing service, charges fees on some items, and states that electronics must never go in curbside or drop off recycling.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

TV removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Richmond.

How much does TV removal cost in Richmond?

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 Richmond?

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 televisions and computers go in Richmond?

To a Central Virginia Waste Management Authority electronics collection event, not to the curb. The authority states that electronics must never be placed in curbside or drop off recycling, that collections run as special events that localities host with the authority, and that fees apply to some items, so check the events calendar and confirm the next date and any charge.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Richmond?

The City of Richmond Department of Public Works Solid Waste Division collects residential trash once a week, Monday through Thursday, and every household gets a city-issued supercan to put it in. Items in non-issued containers are not collected under City Code Section 86-81, the Solid Waste Division answers on 804-646-1798, and the city service line is 311 or 804-646-7000.Official guidance
