JUNK-A-SAURUS🏠 HomeHow to Dispose of a TV & Old Electronics in Utah
Old TVs, monitors, and computers are "e-waste" — they contain materials that shouldn't go in a landfill, and many older TVs are heavy and awkward to move. Here's how to get rid of them responsibly.
Why electronics need special handling
TVs (especially old tube/CRT and some flat screens), monitors, and computers contain metals and components that are meant to be recycled, not landfilled. Most curbside trash won't take them.
Your options
- E-waste recyclers — drop-off centers accept electronics, sometimes for a small fee.
- Retailer take-back — some electronics stores accept old devices.
- Pickup — we collect TVs and electronics with the rest of your junk and route them to recycling.

Why electronics can't go in the trash
TVs, monitors and other electronics contain materials that aren't allowed in regular landfill trash, and older tube TVs are especially heavy and fragile. Before you recycle anything that stored data — a computer, an old phone, a smart TV — sign out of accounts and wipe or factory-reset it. From there, we'll take the e-waste off your hands and route it to proper electronics recyclers so it's handled responsibly instead of ending up in the dump.
