TV Recycling in Blaine, Minnesota

TV recycling for Blaine and the north metro, with weekday drop-off at our 99th Lane NE center, commercial pickup for bulk sets within about 100 miles, and mail-in kits for a few smaller screens.

Old tube TVs carry lead and cadmium inside the picture tube, and newer flat screens are built from glass, circuit boards, metal and plastic that are worth recovering. Recycle Technologies takes all of them at our Blaine site on 99th Lane NE: CRT, LCD, LED, plasma and other flat-screen TVs, whether they still power on or not. Households and businesses can drop off on weekdays, and property managers, schools, offices, and other organizations with a stack of sets can book a pickup instead. Every job comes with a certificate, and our recycling follows R2v3 and RIOS standards.

TVs We Take in Blaine

From the basement tube set nobody wants to lift to a lobby display coming off the wall in a Fridley office, our Blaine center accepts:

  • CRT (tube) televisions of any age

    LCD televisions

  • LED televisions

    Plasma televisions

  • Other flat-screen TVs

    Sets that no longer turn on, along with outdated models

Working TVs and broken ones both qualify, so there's no need to test a set before you bring it in.

Preparing TVs for the Trip

Leave TVs whole. Taking a set apart can crack the screen or break the tube, and our team handles the dismantling. Lay flat screens on a blanket or upright between other items so the glass doesn't flex on the drive, and keep CRT sets on a solid surface. If a screen is already cracked, tell us before you arrive. Cords and remotes can come along with the set.

See our main TV recycling page for more on how televisions are handled.

How TV Recycling Works

Count your sets

Note how many CRTs and flat screens you have and roughly how big they are.

Pick a route

Drop off at our Blaine dock, request commercial pickup, or order a mail-in kit for a few small screens.

Hand them over

Our crew unloads and logs your TVs in Blaine, or collects them from your building.

Dismantling

Each set is broken down so the cabinet, wires, boards, metal parts, and glass are separated. CRT tubes, which contain lead and cadmium, get careful handling, and some newer screen glass is kept separate.

Recovery and records

Metals and plastics go back into use, and you receive a certificate once the job is complete.

Commercial Pickup

Many public programs charge per set, cap how many TVs a household can bring, or won't take sets used by a business or rental property. Property managers turning over units, schools retiring classroom displays, hospitals and clinics replacing room TVs, offices clearing conference rooms, and contractors finishing renovation cleanouts can schedule a pickup instead. Pickup covers businesses within roughly 100 miles of Blaine, including Coon Rapids, Andover, Anoka, Ham Lake, Fridley, Mounds View, Roseville, Brooklyn Park, Maple Grove, Plymouth, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington, Woodbury, Burnsville, Lakeville, Elk River, Forest Lake, Stillwater, Shakopee and St. Cloud.
