Do not put televisions and other electronics in your curbside recycling.

In Ohio, there is no ban on placing televisions and electronics in the regular trash but recycling options do exist. Best Buy stores will recycle tube TVs (up to 28”), flat panel TVs (LCD, plasma, LED, smaller than 50") and portable TVs for a $25 fee per item. Many other types of electronics equipment are free. There is a limit of three TVs per household per day. Visit www.bestbuy.com/recycling.

UPCOMING COLLECTION EVENTS: The Solid Waste District holds seasonal collection events for televisions. There is a fee for this service. In 2021, the next TV collection event will be held on October 30. Register here for an upcoming event or send an email for more information.

If you choose not to recycle your television, it can be placed in the regular trash for disposal. Check with your city service department or waste hauler for details about bulk waste collection. Depending on the size of the item, you may be required to take your television to a waste transfer station for disposal.
