Electronics are the category Amarillo residents most often get wrong, because a TV looks like ordinary bulky trash and is not. An old tube TV holds several pounds of leaded glass. Flat screens carry mercury in the backlight. Both are barred from ordinary disposal in Texas, which is why a set left at the curb tends to sit there. We collect electronics separately and route them to a certified recycler that wipes drives and reports what it recovered.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Why can I not put a TV out with the trash in Amarillo?

Leaded glass in tube sets and mercury in flat screen backlights make them regulated waste. Crews will leave them at the curb, and a set dumped illegally is traceable back to the property.

Do you charge for TV disposal?

Yes, because the recycler charges by weight to accept them. Tube TVs cost more than flat screens for that reason, and the price is on our pricing page rather than sprung on you at the door.

Can you wipe a hard drive before recycling?

Yes. Standard on every computer we collect, and businesses can request a written certificate of destruction.

What about a whole office of equipment?

That is a commercial e-waste job. Tell us the rough count and we will schedule it out of hours so nobody's work day gets interrupted.
