Yes, any barrier is too much for some people. Accept that fact, and have the municipal collectors pick up the TV and do the right thing with it. Better than it getting dumped in the woods or an empty lot somewhere.
The simple trash, recycle, compost stuff works because it is only 3 categories so you can have 3 different colored bags/bins. Adding in the special waste stuff is adding 10+ categories. We'd either need a full rainbow of bins or some special stickers to mark each item (which would be yet-another barrier).
While I'd love at-home pickup, what we really need is for people to just be better.
