In Japan, if you want to throw away old electronics, you have to pay a large removal fee. One way to make it a little easier is to give it away to small private contractors who remove items such as computers, refrigerators, televisions, etc. They park their trucks in residential neighborhoods with loudspeakers announcing their service. Bring them the garbage and they'll take it off your hands for a fee, slightly smaller than the city charges.
