Welcome to Orange Crew
Broken flat-screen, dead plasma, or a heavy old tube TV taking up space? Orange Crew unmounts, carries out, and recycles your television responsibly — so it never ends up illegally on the curb.
Same-day TV removal & recycling available across Chicagoland.
An insured crew arrives, unmounts or lifts your television from wherever it sits, loads it without scratching floors or walls, and takes it to a certified e-waste recycler. No rental truck, no lifting a 90-lb tube TV, no guessing where a screen is legal to dump.
Wall-mounted living-room set, basement projection TV, or a spare bedroom tube — our crew disconnects, unmounts, and carries it out through tight hallways and stairwells so you never lift a screen yourself.
Illinois banned TVs from household trash and landfills. We route every set to certified electronics recyclers, where leaded CRT glass, circuit boards, and metals are recovered instead of buried.
Whether you just upgraded to a bigger 4K screen, inherited a house full of old electronics, or need a busted display gone before it becomes a trip hazard — our crew disconnects, hauls, and recycles it so you don't risk injury or an illegal-dumping fine.
Every type of television has its own weight, glass, and hazard profile — here's what we remove and recycle daily across Chicago homes, offices, and rentals.
01Most commonThin panels crack easily — we pad, box-carry, and recycle the boards and backlights.
02Heavy glassDense and surprisingly heavy for their size — team-lifted and recycled, never landfilled.
03HazardousOld tube sets hide leaded glass — handled by certified e-waste recyclers only.
04Bundle itProjection TVs, streaming boxes, DVD players, and receivers taken in the same trip.
05Small e-wasteLCD and old CRT monitors recycled alongside your TVs — no minimum needed.
06CommercialConference screens and mounted sets unmounted, bracket removed, and hauled in bulk.
Televisions aren't ordinary trash — Illinois law, toxic materials, and your personal data all make DIY disposal riskier than it looks. Here's why most people call a pro.
Illinois bans TVs, monitors, and other e-waste from household garbage and landfills — haulers can refuse or fine curbside sets.
CRT tubes contain leaded glass, and screens hold mercury backlights — broken units release hazards you shouldn't handle at home.
Old tube and rear-projection TVs can top 100 lbs. We team-lift and use dollies so you avoid a back injury or a dropped screen.
Modern TVs store Wi-Fi passwords and streaming logins. We route sets to certified recyclers instead of leaving them on a curb.
Four steps from booking to a certified recycling drop-off — the same process our crews follow on every e-waste job.

Common questions from homeowners, renters, offices, and property managers.
A single flat-screen pickup starts around $75. Heavier CRT/tube and plasma sets run $90–$130, and multiple TVs bundled with other e-waste typically land in the $150–$250 range. We confirm the price on-site before starting.
Yes. Old tube and rear-projection TVs contain leaded glass, so they can't go in regular trash. Our crew lifts them safely and routes them to certified e-waste recyclers that handle hazardous components.
We do. We disconnect the set, take it off the wall mount, and can remove the bracket too if you'd like — just let us know when booking so we bring the right tools.
Working sets may be refurbished or donated. Everything else goes to certified R2/e-Stewards recyclers, where glass, metals, plastics, and circuit boards are recovered instead of landfilled.
