Find a new home for your television. Generally, if your set is in working condition, someone else may be able to use it. Here are some resources:
Options for donating:
| |
• Check with thrift stores and charities. For some options, search Earth911, which offers a Zip-code searchable database, or the Electronic Industries Alliance, for local and national organizations that accept donated electronic items. (Before you pack up your TV, be sure to contact the organization or check its Web site to find out if it's currently accepting the type and condition of television you plan to give away.)
• Consider sites such as freecycle.org where your television will be listed online in your community, and possibly picked up for free by an interested neighbor.

Options for selling:
| |
• If the TV isn't too old and is still in working condition (or repair is an option), another user might buy it through an ad in your local paper or an online service like Craig's list or an auction site like eBay.
