Upgrading to a new TV and not sure what to do with the old one? Old televisions cannot legally go in the regular trash in Arizona, but Arizona Computer Recycling accepts them for free, responsible recycling in Peoria, AZ.
Why Old TVs Need Special Recycling
Older CRT televisions contain leaded glass and other hazardous materials, while flat-screen LCD and LED TVs contain circuit boards and, in some models, mercury-containing backlights. Both types are classified as electronic waste and are banned from regular trash and curbside recycling bins in Arizona.
What We Do With Recycled TVs
- Safe removal and handling of hazardous components like leaded glass or mercury backlighting
- Recovery of metals, plastics, and circuit board materials
- Responsible processing that keeps hazardous e-waste out of Maricopa County landfills
- Proper handling whether the TV is an old tube-style CRT or a modern flat screen

Yes. We accept TVs of all sizes and types, including older CRT tube televisions, flat-screen LCD and LED TVs, and projection TVs.
