Washtenaw County Clean Up Days will accept these and other electronics at the events hosted several times a year. Large TVs are only accepted at certain local recyclers, often for a fee. Older CRT (tube) televisions or large (55” +), flat screen TV’s cannot be mailed in as part of electronic takeback programs due to the logistics of shipping large items. Televisions are one of the more difficult items to recycle. Our Turning Trash into Treasure Guide (PDF) is another resource that provides detailed information about recycling and reuse opportunities in Washtenaw County. The disposal process varies depending on if you plan to sell, reuse or recycle your electronics. There are multiple options for electronics disposal, outlined in the tabs below. Let’s work together to ensure these hazardous materials do not end up in our environment, waterways or landfills! These hazardous materials are known to be toxic and should not be thrown away in your curbside trash. Certain components in our electronics can be hazardous to the environment and our health.
