Used for a long time, quite a lot of waste electronics
As I prepared to move in 5 years, there were quite a lot of unused appliances.
From computer-related products such as printers and monitors that I used, a 6-person dishwasher, an old large speaker and audio system, a small electric rice cooker that I carried while camping, and an Electrolux vacuum cleaner that I used for 7-8 years while replacing batteries, etc. It’s diverse.
In fact, my wife gave an order to throw away all the used electronics before moving, but it was quite a hassle to take out and collect the things that were buried deep here and there in the house, and since there are quite a lot of things, I had to buy waste stickers all at once, but I put it off eventually. It was brought along with the moving house.

In fact, not long before I moved from Cheonan, I visited the community service center and brought a flyer for the free home collection service. 좋은뉴스
It was a service that, if you applied over the phone or the Internet, your old home appliances would be collected on a designated date.

Items that can be collected free of charge are divided into items that can be collected individually and items that emit more than 5 items. Large products such as air conditioners, washing machines, TVs, etc. can apply for at least one item, while small appliances can apply for more than 5 items. .
Free Collection of Abandoned Appliances Items to be Collected and Items to Be Unacceptable
Anyway, the things in my house were a mixture of single collection items and large-volume items, and the quantity was quite large.
It seemed like I found a pretty good way to collect and take it out once I put it out, but it was a week before the moving date that I found out about this service.
Well, I thought that a week would be plenty of time, so I called, but I heard the answer that it would take about two weeks from reception to actual collection, and in the end, I applied after moving to Daejeon.

Reservation for waste home appliance pick-up completed
As soon as the reservation was completed, a notification for a free home collection reservation for abandoned appliances arrived via KakaoTalk.
They say that the visiting driver’s information will be sent back one day before the reservation date, but I forgot about it for almost two weeks, and then the collection driver’s name and contact information arrived the day before.
Text message for home appliance collection reception
I made a reservation for discharge on Monday, so I received the collection driver’s contact number on Sunday afternoon, but the time to visit was not written.
Since the volume of waste appliances to be discharged is quite large, I thought that I could not just pile them up in front of the elevator, so I wanted to contact the collection driver even though it was a holiday, but I got a call 10 minutes after arriving via KakaoTalk.
I checked whether or not the house/outside the door was discharged and the visit time, and it was scheduled to be collected around 7-8 am on Monday, so I piled up the items to be discharged outside the front door the night before.

And on the morning of the reservation day, a message arrived that the collection of discarded appliances had been completed, and when I opened the door, the piled up waste appliances had already disappeared.

When using the free home appliance collection service, it was very convenient to simply make a reservation, put it out at the door without attaching a waste sticker (pick up the waste home appliances yourself if you wish), and collect them neatly.
However, it was disappointing that it took quite a long time, 2 weeks from application to collection.
At least, the house I moved into now had plenty of space, so I piled them up, but these days, the waiting time of two weeks felt strangely long.
From the user’s point of view, it would be much more convenient if the waiting time was only about a week, but anyway, I had to throw away old electronic appliances all at once, so I was very grateful for the service I used.
