The 65-inch TV that died, the projection TV in the basement that weighs 200 pounds, three old computers and a printer. Illinois won't let any of it go in the trash. We'll pick it up and get it recycled.
Since 2012, Illinois has kept TVs, computers, monitors, printers and most other electronics out of landfills. That's the right policy and a real headache: the garbage truck won't take them, drop-off sites have limits and lines, and old CRT and projection TVs are too heavy for most people to move. We removed over 480 electronics loads in the last 24 months, from single TVs to whole-office IT clearouts.
Everything goes to a local electronics recycler who handles it responsibly. For computers and drives, it's a good idea to wipe your data first, or for businesses, ask about a certificate of destruction from the recycler (there's an extra charge for that).
Book online, or call or text (312) 800-1940. Pick an arrival window that suits you. Same-day and next-day are often available, Monday through Saturday.
They take a look at everything and give you one number that covers the labor, loading, hauling and disposal. There's no obligation, so if it doesn't work for you, they simply leave and there's no charge.
The crew carries everything out from wherever it sits, loads it up, and sweeps up after themselves. Most jobs are finished right then and there.
Once everything is loaded and swept, the crew takes payment and emails you a receipt with before-and-after photos, so you can see the job is complete.
Beverly
A Beverly home had three heavy things going at once: an old side-by-side refrigerator in the basement, a California king bed with a solid headboard and footboard, and a queen mattress and box spring from a second bedroom.
Read the case study →The Loop
A firm in a Loop office building needed every desk, credenza, chair, filing cabinet and monitor gone from its suite before the lease turned over.
Read the case study →Itasca
A suburban office in Itasca needed about twenty cubicle workstations, with all their panels, work surfaces, overhead bins, pedestal files and lateral cabinets, taken apart and removed.
Read the case study →No. Illinois law keeps TVs, monitors, computers and most electronics out of landfills, and Chicago crews won't take them. The city's Household Chemicals & Computer Recycling Facility at 1150 N. North Branch St. accepts electronics from residents (with limits on TVs), and otherwise we're happy to pick them up.
Yes. They're the heaviest thing in most basements and the reason a lot of people call us.
Wipe or remove the drives before pickup if you can. For businesses, our electronics recycler can provide a certificate of destruction for an extra charge, so just ask when you book.
Small household batteries and lithium batteries are hazardous waste and should go to a battery drop-off (many hardware stores have one) or the city facility. Car batteries: auto parts stores take them for free. We aren't able to transport loose lithium batteries on our trucks.
To a local electronics recycler who recycles them responsibly. Nothing goes to a landfill from us.
You're welcome to be there, and most people are. If the items are outside, in the garage or the alley, or the home is vacant with a lockbox, the crew can do the job without you. They'll text you before-and-after photos and take payment by phone or with a card on file.
We don't quote by phone, because we'd rather give you a number we can stand behind. The crew comes out for free, looks at what's going and how it's getting out (stairs, elevators, heavy material and all), and gives you one price that covers everything. Say yes and they do the job right then. Say no and there's no charge, no hard feelings.
The price is confirmed on site before anything moves, so there are no surprises on the invoice. How our pricing works →
If you've got junk anywhere in Chicago or the Chicagoland suburbs, we'd be glad to take it off your hands. Book a free onsite estimate online, or call or text us at (312) 800-1940 and we'll get you on the schedule.
