5. How do I get rid of my old TV?
« Previous | Home | Next »
Throwing your TV away is harmful to the environment. TVs and computer monitors contain a significant amount of toxic lead, and other e-scrap components are made with a number of heavy metals, all of which can be dangerous to public health. To find a TV recycling station in your area, click here: http://www.mygreenelectronics.org.
With Premier In-home Delivery from Sony, service professionals will carry your 32" or larger BRAVIA® LCD television into your home or office, place it in your room of choice, unpack it, set it up, and clean up the mess for $129.99. The service includes removing your old TV from any room in your house and hauling it away for eco-friendly recycling.
