When Waste Management and Waste Collection Fail us
August 31, 2021How a Responsible Waste Management and Waste Disposal Programme Can Help Your Business Go Green
September 17, 2021Once you have decided that it is time to say goodbye to your old fridge, mattress, or your couch and chairs, you have to decide how best to dispose of them. Or you are laying new carpets in your bedrooms, and you need to get rid of the old ones. It is not as easy as you may think as most councils have strict rules governing the disposal of these bulky items. It is important to take into consideration the condition that these items are in before you ditch them. If they are not wrecked and are still functional, then the solution may be found in donating them to one of your local charity organisations, or even selling them to recoup some cash.
But if the condition of the bulky stuff you want to get rid of is too far gone to be used, then donating it is no longer a possibility. Rubbish Removal Chester is there for you when you need these old bulky items such as appliances, mattresses, or used carpeting removed from your property and disposed of. We have a team of professionals who will come to your house at a pre-arranged time and remove your unwanted items when it is convenient to you. We even offer a same day waste removal service for when you need to get rid of your unwanted goods in a hurry. We have all the right tools of the trade, and we will remove these items with as little disruption to you as possible because this is our job, and we realise that you have more important things to do with your time.
Different Ways of Disposing of Your Large Waste Items
-
A Garage Sale
If you have the time and the energy to organise a garage sale, this is a good way to get rid of your unwanted items. Large furniture such as couches, chairs, tables, and also any unwanted outdoor furniture may be snapped up at a garage sale. Even old appliances may sell on the day, but they must be in working order. Add your smaller items and clothing, and even old toys and baby goods, and you may raise a fair amount of money.
Instead of a garage sale, try selling them online on one of the marketplace forums such as eBay, Facebook, or Gumtree. Add lots of photos of your items, find a good forum, and you should sell these unwanted items quite easily. Remember your rubbish could be someone else’s treasure! -
Donate to charity
There are a number of charities in the Chester area who will only be too happy to receive your unwanted furniture and other goods. They will require the goods to be in good working condition though, but this is a great way of recycling your unwanted goods. There is a local charity in Cheshire called Changing Lives Together which helps families find affordable furniture and household appliances. This type of activity of recycling and reusing your household goods that you no longer need saves tons of waste from reaching the landfill and tons of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere.
Hospice retail shops in the area also accept your good quality furniture to sell in their stores, so will accept your pre-used furniture and appliances which are in good condition. They also accept clothes, toys, and any household goods you do not need any longer. -
Hiring a private waste removal company
The important thing to remember when dealing with a private waste company is to check that they have a “Registered Waste Carriers License”. Insist on a receipt and make a note of the registration number of the vehicle to avoid having your waste removed by a fly-tipper. Rubbish Removal Chester are a licensed company who recycle your waste where we can, and only take it to the landfill as a last resort.
Dispose of Your Large Waste Items Responsibly
Bulky waste that is not disposed of responsibly can have a negative impact on our environment. That is why when you have old mattresses, carpets, or furniture that is no longer useful to you any longer, you need to take care when you get rid of them. These items are heavy and bulky, making them difficult to move, so it is sometimes better to leave the disposal of these to the experts.
Fridge disposal also needs careful planning as a fridge is not something that can just be dumped anywhere. Fridges are constructed using heavy metals which can be recycled and reused, but if they are dumped in a landfill to decompose, the metals are not the only components that are dangerous. They also release toxic gases into the environment which add to the problems of environmental degradation and ultimately climate change. It is therefore imperative to get rid of your old fridge responsibly. By using a licensed rubbish removal and disposal company, you can be assured that you are doing the right thing by disposing of it legally. The same goes for other household appliances such as microwaves, washing machines, cookers, and dishwashers when you replace them with new ones. Be sure to contact Rubbish Removal Chester to dispose of any of your unwanted appliances in an ethical manner. We recycle where we can and dispose of it to the correct places if it cannot be recycled.
