We can accept E Waste this year EXCEPT televisions that contain cathode ray tubes. A TV with a cathode ray tube (CRT) is easily identified by its heavy, boxy, and deep design, often featuring a curved glass screen. If the TV is very heavy, has a large, tapering back, and makes a faint “voooom” or whine sound upon turning on, it is a CRT.
- Weight & Depth: CRT TVs are extremely heavy and deep (often as deep as the screen is wide), unlike thin, lightweight LCD/OLED models.
- Glass Screen: The screen is made of thick, glossy, and usually slightly curved glass, which will make a distinct “knocking” sound if tapped.
- Back Shape: The back of the TV is not flat; it tapers toward the back, containing a long glass vacuum tube.
- Startup Sound: A faint high-pitched whine or humming noise is often audible when turning on a CRT.
- Inputs: Older inputs such as RF (coaxial), RCA (red/white/yellow), or S-Video are common, rather than HDMI.
- Model Label: Check the back for a manufacturer sticker; if it lists a manufacture date before 2005-2010, it is very likely a CRT.
If the screen is perfectly flat and the unit is shallow (only a few inches deep), it is not a CRT, but a flat-panel display (LCD, Plasma, or OLED).
