Old TVs — especially heavy CRTs and large flat-screens — are classified as WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment) and need specialist recycling. You can't put them in your normal bins. In Ferndown, from West Moors, Longham and Tricketts Cross, we collect TVs and monitors of any type and size from your home. CRT, LCD, LED, plasma — they all contain materials that need proper handling. 1970s–1990s detached houses on estates properties in the area mean wall-mounted TVs, entertainment setups, and old screens stored in garages are all common finds during clear-outs. Suburban family town with many post-war estates. Popular with families upgrading from Bournemouth. West Moors has an older demographic.
While we're there: add the TV stand (£35), a small appliance (£45), or bags of rubbish (£12/bag)

Your TV + call-out = £79 total. A half load is £179 — just £100 more to clear the whole room.
Dorset Council includes TVs in their bulky waste service at £30 for 1 item, £10 per additional item (max 6). You'll wait up to 4 weeks and need to leave it at the kerbside. For large flat-screens this is manageable, but old CRT TVs are extremely heavy for their size. TipRun collects from inside your home.

Wimborne Recycling Centre (3.5 miles from Ferndown) has a WEEE bay for electronics. TVs are accepted, but larger screens can be awkward to transport in a car. Old CRT TVs are particularly heavy — a 32-inch CRT weighs around 40kg. Proof of Dorset address required. If you've got a TV plus other items to clear, a TipRun collection makes more sense than multiple tip trips.
Wide estate roads with good van access. Most properties have front driveways or garages. West Moors has some older bungalow rows with tighter access. For TV disposal, please unplug the TV and remove any wall brackets if wall-mounted (we collect the TV, not the bracket). Remotes, cables, and small accessories can go with the TV at no extra charge. Residential estates with driveways. Free on-street parking throughout. No permit zones.
“Quick, friendly, and affordable. Mattress and bed frame gone. They even swept up after.”
