Do Junk Removal Companies Take TVs in Dothan, AL?

Quick Answer

By Dothan Junk Removal Co. · Updated May 2026 · 5 min read

Yes, we take all types of televisions, including old tube models and large projection screens that other services reject. Because electronics require special handling, we ensure they are disposed of or recycled according to local regulations. You can avoid a trip to the recycling center by including your TV with the rest of your junk.

Short Answer: Yes, We Take TVs

Old flat-screen, big-screen projection, or ancient tube TV (CRT) - we take them. This is a surprisingly common question because people know electronics have special disposal requirements and aren't sure if junk removal companies handle it.

We do. We take flat-screen TVs of all sizes, old CRT (tube) televisions, projection TVs, and TV stands/entertainment centers as part of the same load.

Why TVs Are Treated Differently

CRT TVs contain lead and other hazardous materials - they can't just go in the regular landfill. Flat-screen TVs contain mercury (in some older LCDs) and other materials that require proper handling. So they go to certified e-waste recyclers, not standard disposal.

This costs us a bit more to dispose of than regular junk, which is why some companies charge extra for TVs. We factor it into our overall quote rather than adding a surprise line item.

Tube TVs Are the Heavy Ones

If you have a CRT TV - especially a larger one (27 inches or more) - those things weigh 100–200 pounds and are awkward as anything to carry. We handle it, but worth noting when you call so we bring the right crew size.

What Else We Take With Your TVs

Computers and laptops, monitors, printers, stereos, DVD/Blu-ray players, gaming systems, cable boxes, old phones. Most electronics we take in the same haul. Just mention everything when you call.

One Thing We Can't Take

TVs with cracked screens leaking liquid crystal - those fall under special hazmat handling that's beyond what we do. That's rare, but worth knowing. A broken flat-screen with just a cracked screen (no leak) is totally fine.
