Pickup is not guaranteed
Some cities collect e-waste at the curb only with an appointment, seasonal event, utility account, bulky-item request, or separate fee. Others send residents to drop-off or take-back programs.
Preparation can change the answer
Before moving the item, check whether doors, fluids, batteries, bulbs, chemicals, packaging, labels, or refrigerant handling rules apply. The city guide lists the preparation details found in official sources.
Always verify the local source
Disposal programs change hours, prices, accepted quantities, and eligibility rules. Use the official links in the matching city guide before paying, hauling, or placing anything outside.
