The Center for Hard to Recycle Materials (CHaRM) has monthly e-waste recycling events in Buckhead on the last Saturday of each month, as well as a permanent recycling location. If you have the time and patience to transport your own television to an eWaste recycling event, your options in Atlanta are pretty limited. Taking your old television set and other electronics to a recycling event can be a time-consuming and expensive task, depending on how much you’ll have to pay in fees, whether or not you have a truck, and how much time you have available to brave Atlanta’s notorious traffic to make the trip. LoadUp offers upfront, honest prices 20-30% lower than those of most other electronics removal and recycling services. LoadUp offers responsible disposal of electronics by donating those that are still in working condition, and recycling those that aren’t. You can keep your neighborhood clean and beautiful by booking LoadUp for Atlanta TV removal and disposal service instead. Plus, do you really want to risk getting in trouble with your landlord or HOA in addition to getting fined by the City for trash items that aren’t placed in collection bins? Probably not. But the likelihood of that happening is quite low. It might be tempting to just leave your old TV out on the curb in the hopes that someone walking through the neighborhood will grab it. Improper disposal, like throwing a tv out with the trash, can have some serious environmental consequences. The Federal government has stated that the tubes in color televisions contain hazardous waste. All of the trash collected from curbside trash bins is taken to a local Atlanta landfill, where it takes months – even years – to decompose. Although it isn’t illegal, throwing out small- to medium-sized televisions with your curbside trash pickup isn’t the best option.
