Disposing of white goods is something that a lot of people think about; especially when they are either moving house or they want to buy new ones. It can become quite a headache especially when you have quite large white goods, such as a freezer or a fridge, however you don't know where to shift it to. Below, we have created a small check list to help you decide on what exactly you need to do with your white goods before you decide to dispose of them or have a house clearance.

1) The first thing you need to establish is what exactly you would like to do with the white goods. Do you want to dispose of them in their entirety, do you want to sell them or do you want to opt for white good recycling? Knowing that you have options is incredibly important because until you know what you want to do with your goods, you won't be able to proceed to the next step of waste clearance.

2) If you are looking to dispose of your white goods, it is in your best interest to either load them up into a van or get a clearance company to help you take it away. Because there are different laws that surround white goods disposal, a company can help you decide best when it comes to it. Mind you, they might be the same ones delivering your new goods to you, so it's worth asking them if they are able to do a combination.

3) If you are looking to recycle your items, again you can enlist the help of a waste removal company that will help you lift all your goods up and take them to the right place. Alternatively, you can also take it there yourself. A lot of people choose this road because they want to have their white goods recycled. All types of white goods can be recycled, from your dishwasher to your fridge freezer. You just need to know the right place.

4) If you are thinking of selling your white goods as part of your rubbish removal, the best bet is to put them up for sale on an online store or have an auction. You will find that someone will be interested in buying your goods and you can get them pick the items up without you having to worry too much about it. Selling the old white goods is often the route that most people take because you can get rid of your goods and also make money whilst doing it.

5) You can also donate your white goods to a local charity, providing they are happy to pick them up. Some people also choose this as their way to dispose of their white goods.

What is important is that you choose the right option for you. What may work for someone else may not work for you. Having your white goods disposed of takes a little bit of time. Especially when you look at having the sale completed as well as transportation arranged! Remember, your white goods don't always have to be upgraded if you feel they are still of good use. It is only until you feel you need more space or something has broken down that you should change anything. Your white goods serve you well; ensure that you treat them well, too!
