E-Waste Removal Services in McMurray PA
Old electronics don’t belong in the trash. In Pennsylvania, disposing of computers, TVs, and other electronics in standard household waste is illegal under the Covered Device Recycling Act — and for good reason. These devices contain lead, mercury, cadmium, and other hazardous materials that contaminate soil and groundwater when landfilled.
Iron Bear & Co provides e-waste removal in McMurray, PA. We pick up old electronics from your home or business, ensure they’re handled by certified recyclers, and keep hazardous materials out of Washington County’s waste stream.
Call (724) 809-3998 to schedule your e-waste pickup.

Why Proper E-Waste Disposal Matters in McMurray, PA
Pennsylvania Law Requires It
Under the Pennsylvania Covered Device Recycling Act, residents and businesses are prohibited from disposing of covered electronic devices — televisions, computers, and monitors — in standard trash. Violations can result in fines. Iron Bear & Co ensures your electronics go to certified recyclers, keeping you compliant.
Environmental Impact
A single CRT television can contain up to 8 pounds of lead. LCD monitors use mercury in their backlights. Batteries in laptops and phones contain lithium, cadmium, and other heavy metals. When these devices end up in landfills, these materials leach into groundwater. McMurray and Peters Township sit above the Upper Ohio River basin — proper e-waste disposal is a local environmental issue.
Data Security
Your old electronics contain personal data. We recommend wiping drives before disposal — we do not provide data destruction services, but we do ensure devices go to certified recyclers who handle them responsibly. For business clients with data security requirements, we can provide a chain of custody upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions — E-Waste Removal McMurray PA
Is it illegal to throw old TVs and computers in the trash in Pennsylvania?
Yes. Pennsylvania’s Covered Device Recycling Act prohibits disposing of televisions, computers, and monitors in standard household trash. These items must be recycled through approved channels. Iron Bear & Co ensures your electronics go to certified recyclers.
Do you take items that no longer work?
Yes — broken, cracked, water-damaged, or non-functional electronics are fine. The components are still recyclable regardless of whether the device works.
Do you wipe hard drives before disposal?
We don’t provide data destruction services. We recommend removing or wiping drives before we pick up computers and laptops. If you need certified data destruction, contact a dedicated IT asset disposal company. We can recommend local options.
How much does e-waste removal cost in McMurray?
Pricing depends on volume and item types. CRT televisions and monitors are more expensive to recycle due to their lead content — this is reflected in pricing. Call us with what you have and we’ll give you an honest quote.
Can you combine e-waste removal with a full cleanout?
Yes — this is very common. If you’re doing a basement cleanout, office cleanout, or estate cleanout and there are electronics in the mix, we handle everything in one trip.
