Getting a new and efficient washer and dryer set is a great investment. Having new appliances is always exciting, but old appliance removal - not so much!

 When your washer and dryer reach the end of their useful life, replacing them with new appliances is a good way to go. With some things it makes sense to find used items for replacements, but large appliances such as washers and dryers tend to become more efficient with each new generation of design.

Old washers and dryers tend to use a large amount of energy and water. And, as they age, they can begin to create a great deal of noise, or stop working well.

Washing Machines and Dryers Must be Replaced Periodically

If your washing machine or dryer has become inefficient, noisy, leaky, or in need of constant repairs, it’s time to upgrade. With the advances in technology, new washing machines and dryers offer greater energy and water efficiency, better cleaning and drying performance, and a number of new features.

For example, in some new front loading washing machines, the pedestal under the washer has been made into a smaller second washing machine, so you can do two separate loads simultaneously. The top machine manages a full load of washing while the lower machine can be used for small loads that need special attention.

Another great innovation is a top-loading washing machine with a built-in sink under the lid for hand washing or pre-treating. It has a jet that directs water into the sink and the ribbed sides for hand scrubbing. The water can be poured into the washer's main tub when done. This is great for homes without a sink in the laundry room.

Smart technology has allowed for a washer that is compatible with a smart thermostat and can be controlled and monitored using a mobile app. The system can switch both the washer or the thrmostat to a quiet mode when you are home, or turn them on during low-cost, off-peak energy hours. In addition, there are troubleshooting and diagnostic features, as well.

What About Your Old Appliance Removal Needs?

Not every appliance dealer offers to take you old machines off your hands. So the problem for many homeowners becomes, "How do we get rid of our old machines?"

If they are still in working and usable condition, you can try selling them online or in a yard sale. But, if they don't sell quickly, or you simply don't want to bother with the process, what do you do? The easy answer is to hire ajunk removal service.

And when you use an eco-friendly junk removal service, such as Junk King, to repurpose your old appliance you don’t have to worry about the environmental impact of disposing of your old machines.

When is time to upgrade to a new washing machine and dryer? If you have these problems:

  • Noisy, humming, rattling washing machines.
  • Excessive water consumption and ineffective in cleaning your clothes.
  • Dryer takes too long to dry.
  • Water leaking or not draining.
  • Years of age, outdated energy efficiency.
  • Expensive repairs (often the case with old top-loader machines).

We know that getting the old ones out the door and responsibly disposed of can be difficult. Fortunately, Junk King's local junk removal service offers you a simple solution for the disposal and recycling of your old washing machine or dryer. And, when you use our junk removal services, you receive the friendliest service from America’s greenest junk haulers.

Can Your Old Washer and Dryer Be Recycled or Reused?

Yes, your old washing machine and dryer can be reused or disassembled and recycled. Decent condition appliances are much appreciated by donation center and charities, and our junk removal service can help to make sure your old appliances are recycled or reused.

Appliance recycling often makes more sense than donation, since the equipment is probably inefficient and close to breaking down if it hasn’t already. Moving and lifting a washer or dryer takes a lot of hard work and requires a vehicle that can handle the load safely — our junk removal teams are not just well trained for these tasks, they also have the right equipment to do it fast and efficient. That’s when appliance recycling from a professional junk removal team saves the day.
