Can I put a TV or computer in the garbage in Toronto?

No. Electronics are banned from Toronto garbage collection. They have to go to an electronics recycling depot, which is where everything we pick up ends up.

What about the data on my old computer?

We don’t wipe drives and won’t pretend otherwise. If the data matters, pull the hard drive before pickup and keep or destroy it yourself — the rest of the machine still recycles the same way.

Do you take batteries, paint, or other hazardous waste?

No. Hazardous waste needs licensed drop-off, and our What We Don’t Take page lists where those go. Electronics themselves are fine: that’s exactly what this service is for.

Why this page exists

Honest version: Ontario has free electronics drop-off depots, and if you can lift it, load it, and make the trip, use one. What you pay us for is the lifting and the trip — a 40-kilogram tube TV up basement stairs is exactly the job this page exists for.

What affects the price

Volume and weight — CRT TVs and old monitors are heavy
Access — basement stairs, condo elevators, carry distance
Standalone pickup vs. added to a larger junk load — bundling costs less
