TV Disposal & Electronics Removal in York County, PA
Tube TVs, flat screens, monitors, towers and printers carried out of the basement, the den or the home office, and kept out of the trash.
Old TVs pile up for a reason. In Pennsylvania you can’t just set one out on trash day, so the console set in the rec room and the dead desktop in the closet stay right where they are for years. TV disposal and electronics removal is where we come in: we carry out tube TVs, flat screens, monitors, towers, printers and the tangle of cords behind them, load it all, and keep it separate from the trash. You get the price up front, and nobody in your house has to wrestle a 32-inch picture tube up the basement steps.
What's Included
- Two-person crew for heavy tube and console TVs
- Pickup from any room: basement, attic, den, home office
- Monitors, towers, printers and cords gathered up together
- Electronics kept separate from trash in the truck
- Price agreed before the first cord is unplugged
- Sweep-up of the corner we cleared
What We Take
- Tube (CRT) and console TVs
- Flat-screen TVs
- Desktop computers and laptops
- Computer monitors
- Printers, keyboards and other computer peripherals
- Stereos, VCRs and DVD players
- Video game consoles
- Cables and cords
How the job goes
- Step 1Count the screens
Text a photo or a quick list: how many TVs, roughly how big, tube or flat, and which floor they’re on.
- Step 2Wipe your drives
Clear or pull the hard drive from any computer that’s going. That part is on you.
- Step 3Price before we unplug anything
William confirms the price on site. Then we disconnect, coil the cords and start carrying.
- Step 4Careful carry-out
Tube TVs get carried, not dropped. A cracked one is a bigger problem than a whole one.
Why TVs and computers can’t go in the trash in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania’s Covered Device Recycling Act, Act 108 of 2010, set up a disposal ban that took effect January 24, 2013. Since then, nobody may put a covered device or any of its components in municipal trash.[1][2]
Covered devices are desktop and laptop computers, computer monitors, computer peripherals and televisions. A peripheral means a keyboard, printer or any other device sold only for external use with a computer, and a TV counts if its screen is four inches or larger.[3][2]
The ban reaches past your own trash can. Licensed haulers and transfer stations may not knowingly accept covered devices for disposal or mix them into waste headed for disposal, and landfills and resource recovery plants can’t accept them at all.[1]
Not everything with a plug is covered. Phones of any kind, GPS units and electronics built into appliances like washers or microwaves are excluded from the law.[1][2]
The reason the state cares: electronic waste can contain lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. DEP also warns that broken or damaged devices may be considered hazardous waste, so don’t smash a tube TV to make it easier to carry.[4][3]
Free electronics recycling in York County
If you can haul it yourself, York County residents can recycle electronics free at the Resource Recovery Center and at two satellite sites, the Fairview Township and Penn Township recycling centers. The limit is five TVs per resident per visit.[5]
At the county’s Small Load Drop-Off, a load of nothing but electronics carries no fee. Mix other junk into that load and the whole thing gets charged, so keep the electronics trip separate.[6][5]
Dauphin County residents have their own option: TVs, computers and monitors are on the free list at the county recycling center on South Cameron Street in Harrisburg. Accepted-item lists change, so check the program’s page before you load the car.[7][8]
- Accepted at York County’s sites: computers, monitors and peripherals, TVs, audio and video gear, game consoles, phones, printers and copiers, networking gear, wires and cables[5][9]
- Not accepted there: devices with refrigerant (dehumidifiers, air conditioners, fridges), electric motors, devices containing liquids, oil radiant heaters and smoke detectors[5]
Computer disposal: wipe it first
