There are times when you have unusable appliances at home, right? The way to dispose of home appliances that need to be thrown away is to purchase a waste disposal sticker at a community center, attach it to the home appliance, and place it outside the house.
At this time, the sticker price varies slightly depending on the type and size of the home appliance.
However, there is a service that collects waste home appliances for free without charging any money. This service is provided by the waste home appliance collection reservation center operated jointly by the Ministry of Environment and local governments.
To use this service, visit the website (https://15990903.or.kr) or call 1599-0903 to make a reservation for free in-person collection and place your waste home appliances outside your home on the scheduled visit date.
However, if you just leave your waste home appliances outside your home, people who are not aware of the free waste home appliance collection service may look at you negatively. Therefore, it would be a good idea to write ‘1599-0903 Use free collection service for waste home appliances’ on a piece of paper and attach it to the home appliance.
