For those of us on the south side, there is a place I've taken stuff to 
before.  They charge for TVs and monitors, or say they do.  The last 
time I went, she didn't charge me for a couple of monitors and a TV, 
however.  YMMV.  Somewhere in their advertising they said they didn't 
accept material from homeowners, however that isn't true.
