Frequently Asked Questions for Free Waste Collection
What is free home appliance collection?
Free waste collection
Free on-site collection of waste home appliances is a service in which a collection engineer visits the home and collects heavy waste home appliances without having to pay a fee and without having to pay a separate subscription or transport to a designated place.
Usually, the collection of waste home appliances is mostly operated by private companies. The free collection of waste home appliances that I will introduce today is a new collection system made by the Ministry of Environment, local governments, and electronics producers to make it easier for the people to dispose of waste home appliances with a single reservation. The Korea Electronics Resources Circulation Mutual Aid Association (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Mutual Aid Association’) is operating a new waste home appliance collection system, namely ‘free home appliance collection’.
Door-to-door collection and discharge system for waste home appliances
There are several effects of free home appliance collection. First of all, we are relieving the burden of citizens by waiving the waste home appliance discharge fee. In addition, through the implementation of the free on-site collection service, we can expect greenhouse gas reduction effects by blocking illegal disposal of waste home appliances in advance. (The warming effect of refrigerator refrigerant is up to 11,700 times greater than that of carbon dioxide.) The waste home appliances collected through the free on-site collection are treated in an eco-friendly way.

How to apply for free collection of waste home appliances
Free collection of small appliances
Free collection of waste home appliances can be done on the homepage of the free disposal reservation system for waste home appliances or by phone. Each person can choose the one that is convenient for them, and when I tried it myself, it was a little easier to receive a phone call. However, it may be difficult to connect by phone when there are many phone users, so please apply online. (Mobile applications can be applied 24 hours a day without holidays)
When applying online, first enter your personal information and basic information, and fill out the information on collection items to complete the reservation. You must first enter your address so that you can apply for the date you want.
As a rule, for free collection of waste home appliances, items to be discharged that have been reserved must be collected at home. (However, at the request of residents, collection in front of the front door, yard, etc.)
