I heard you aren't supposed to take them to the landfill to get rid of them.

Pretty much any recycling center or transfer station or any other place that handles universal hazardous waste will take it in. You'll probably incur a small charge (it's about $2 a monitor/tv here) for the disposal but well worth bypassing the hundreds of dollars in fines for improper disposal of hazardous materials.
Call the landfill or town office if you do not know where your local universal hazardous waste drop-off location is.

There is often a computer business in some cities that will take used computers and monitors. Call a computer store or ask around.

Yes, you are supposed to get rid of them in a special way just like you would with used oil. Just go throw it in someone elses dumpster.

Please recycle it.
You need to look up monitor recycling or CRT recycling in your area.
Some computer companies will take it back to be recycled, you could try the manufacturer.
