It can be difficult to get rid of an old water heater, oven, or other appliance. Several options are available to you, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. You can load it in your own truck and take it to a dump or recycling center. Contact your local trash pickup to find out if they have a large item trash day. You can also hire a junk hauling service to take it away and dispose of it properly. Let’s check out the pros and cons of all three.
Hauling it Yourself
- PROS:
- It is the cheapest option
- You can do it at your own pace and on your own schedule
- CONS:
- You must have the right vehicle that is big enough to do the job
- It can be a dirty job and there may be unexpected costs at the disposal location
- It requires research to find the right place for disposal
Local Trash Large Item Pickup
- PROS:
- Trash pickup comes to you on scheduled days
- It is often included in your usual trash collection costs
- CONS:
- You could incur additional fees from your trash collector
- Items can only be picked up on the scheduled large item days, which may only be once a month
- Many local trash services limit the size and weight of large and bulky items
Junk Hauler Large Item Removal
- PROS:
- Can be scheduled for any day of the week
- You don’t have to do any of the heavy lifting or loading
- Licensed and insured companies will dispose of the items responsibly and in an eco-friendly way
- CONS:
- Hiring a third party will cost more than doing it yourself and using local trash pickup. There are fuel costs, disposal fees, employee wages, etc, included in the junk removal price.
There is no perfect solution for every old appliance disposal situation, as you can see. Understanding all options' costs and challenges is essential. You may think junk removal services are expensive, with prices starting around $100 for bulky items, but you also benefit from haulers doing the challenging work, convenient scheduling, and the assurance that your item is being disposed of responsibly.
