A Guide For Old Appliance Removal

Need to make room for new appliances but unsure what to do with the old, bulky ones—especially if they're no longer functional? Fortunately, there are eco-friendly and budget-friendly ways to dispose of your appliances without resorting to the trash or leaving them in an unused corner.

Which appliance to keep?

Your appliance may have more life left in it than you think—it just might need a little maintenance. Only dispose of appliances that are truly beyond repair or have completely burned out. At that point, they’re essentially scrap metal, so it’s time to get rid of them.

Repair

Appliances are still as expensive as ever, so if you have a durable one that just needs fixing or a new part installed, it’s worth repairing. It’s far more cost-effective than buying entirely new appliances.

Donate

If your appliance is still in good working condition, consider donating it. This not only gives the appliance a second life but also ensures it can be far more useful to someone else, rather than ending up as scrap metal in a landfill.

Repurpose

Yes, you read that correctly! You can transform your old retro appliances into stylish statement pieces. This might sound unusual, but it’s not as rare as it seems—old appliances became trendy decorative items in the early 2020s.

Replace

Score a great deal by trading in your old appliances for new ones. This way, you won’t have to worry about space when upgrading, and it’s a more budget-friendly option. Many companies and stores offer trade-in deals, as some businesses prefer older, sturdier appliances over newer, more fragile models. Be sure to check out local options for these kinds of offers!

Recycle

If your appliance isn't functional enough to sell or trade, don't stress. Instead of handing it off as a whole appliance, you can take it apart and recycle its parts. If you have a bulk of them, you might even get a good deal. Alternatively, you can take it to a recycling center, where they will handle the disassembling and recycling for you.
