Your Appliance Headache, We Get It

Or maybe your dishwasher gave up mid-cycle, leaving your kitchen smelling like last night’s dinner. You know JM Junk can dispose of any appliances, but… what is considered as an appliance?

At JM Junk Removers, with hundreds of appliance removal service jobs under our belt, we’re not just here to haul away your unwanted items; we’re here to educate and make your life easier, one appliance removal at a time. Read to learn more what and what doesn’t count as an appliance
What Is an Appliance?
An appliance is any device that uses electricity or gas to perform a specific function, typically in a home or business. Sounds simple, right? But not all appliances are created equal, some are big, some are small, and some come with extra disposal requirements.
Common Household Appliances:
- Kitchen Appliances: Refrigerators, freezers, ovens, microwaves, dishwashers, garbage disposals.
- Laundry Appliances: Washing machines, dryers.
- Climate Control Appliances: Air conditioners, space heaters.
- Utility Appliances: Water heaters, sump pumps, dehumidifiers.
What’s Not Considered an Appliance?
Some items might seem like appliances, but technically don’t fit the definition. For example:
- Electronics: TVs, computers, gaming consoles.
- Furniture with Electrical Components: Recliners with built-in massagers.
- Portable Devices: Fans, electric toothbrushes, battery-powered vacuums.

Why Does It Matter?
Understanding what counts as an appliance is key when it comes to disposal. Some appliances contain hazardous materials like refrigerants (found in fridges and AC units) that require special handling. Others are bulky and difficult to move, meaning you’ll want a team like JM Junk Removers to take care of the heavy lifting.
