The time has come to tidy up the winter blankets and put on the thick winter coats. Starting this week, I left my long padding and long coats at the laundry and started organizing my clothes one by one. 전기장판 버리는 법

It’s an electric blanket that I’ve been using in a small room and used as both a carpet and a room mat. I’ve been using it for several years, and when I wake up, I’m so tired. So, I decided to sort this out. 1분전

 

These days, electric pads that can be washed separately have become common, but old products cannot be washed, so contamination and stains over time are unavoidable.

 

In addition to the hygienic aspect, as it is an electronic device, it is dangerous from various safety accidents when it is old, so it is better to throw it away without regretting it. I’ve been warm thanks to you all this time~ Thank you electric mat!

 

 

How to dispose of electric pads and hot water mats

Then, how to properly dispose of electric pads and hot water mats?

Many people buy them in large pay-as-you-go bags and throw them away or just throw them in the recycling bin, but these are all wrong methods.

 

First of all, if you throw it away in a pay-as-you-go bag, there is a risk of exploding in the process of incinerating the waste. In addition, environmental pollution is unavoidable when burned or landfilled due to partial materials such as plastic and nylon.

So, if you want to throw away electric pads or hot water mats, the best way is to purchase a ‘large waste’ sticker, attach it, and then dispose of it.

 

 

Bulky Waste Sticker

 

The cost of disposing of electric pads and hot water mats is 2,000 won to 3,000 won, depending on the size, and you can purchase and attach a waste sticker.

I bought a 3,000 won sticker because it is a large size.

 

These days, you can easily buy it at a convenience store or local mart near your house, so it’s so convenient!

If you are curious about the detailed cost, ask the mart staff and they will tell you.

Special mats such as extra-large hot water mats or jade mats cost 5,000 won, so please refer to them before purchasing them.

 

 

Throwing it away is simple.

You can reduce the volume so that the person who collects it can carry it as much as possible, pack it meticulously, and attach a sticker.

 

If you have an electric bat or hot water mat storage bag, it is best to put it in it before disposing of it. Unfortunately, I threw away the storage bag a long time ago, so I rolled it up to make it as small as possible, tied it with an electrical cord, and put a sticker on it.

 

 

If you, like me, live in an apartment or multi-unit dwelling, report to the collection company separately and collect the waste on the collection day. However, if you live in a detached house or an area that requires a separate report, you must call the collection company to report it.

Since I live in Gimpo, I will leave the contact information of the waste collection company in Gimpo.
