Area served: Orange County, Orange County, California Contact: 323-547-5879 — info@thejunkiez.com Last updated: 2026-08-28 The Junkiez provides same-day electronics & e-waste recycling in Orange County. TVs, monitors, computers and e-waste collected and taken to a California-approved recycler, with data-bearing drives handled securely. Electronic waste is classified as hazardous waste in California. It is illegal to put a television or monitor in your household bin, and the CRT tubes in older sets contain several pounds of leaded glass each. We are set up to collect e-waste in volume and deliver it to an approved collection and recycling facility, which matters more than it sounds if you are an office clearing out forty workstations. ### Electronics in Orange County Orange County is the most HOA-governed market we work in, and that changes the job in practical ways. A large share of communities here prohibit items being staged at the kerb, restrict working hours, and require contractors to be cleared at a gate before arrival. The upside is that access, once you are in, is generally excellent — wide streets, long driveways, three-car garages, and room to work. Give us the community and gate name when you book and we will get on the list ahead of time rather than losing an hour at a guardhouse. County facilities — Frank R. Bowerman in Irvine, Olinda Alpha in Brea, Prima Deshecha in San Juan Capistrano — cover the north, centre and south of the county, and green waste goes to composting as a separate load. The inland canyon fringes have enforced fire-season brush clearance requirements. ### What we take - Televisions — flat screen, plasma, projection and CRT - Computer monitors, desktops, laptops and tablets - Printers, scanners, copiers and fax machines - Servers, switches, routers and networking gear - Stereo equipment, speakers and receivers - Game consoles, DVD players and set-top boxes - Phones, cables, keyboards and peripherals - UPS units and batteries ### It is hazardous waste, legally speaking Under California’s Electronic Waste Recycling Act, CRTs and most display devices are universal waste and cannot go to landfill. You already paid an eWaste recycling fee when you bought the device. We deliver to an approved facility so the leaded glass, mercury backlights and circuit-board metals are handled under that programme rather than crushed into a landfill cell. ### Getting a price in Orange County We quote free on site, before anything is loaded, and the number does not change afterwards. Our rates are the same everywhere we work — there is no Orange County surcharge, and stairs, long carries and disassembly are all included. ## Frequently asked questions **Can I throw a TV in the trash in California?** No. Televisions and monitors are classified as universal hazardous waste and are banned from household disposal. **What happens to my data?** We can remove drives on site and hand them to you, or route equipment to a recycler that issues a certificate of data destruction. **Do you take old CRT televisions?** Yes. Those are the ones most haulers refuse, because of the leaded glass. We take them.
