Q: Can you put appliances in the trash bin?

• <div><p>While smaller appliances might fit in your trash bin, many municipalities and private waste collection companies prohibit throwing them away with your regular trash. Contact your trash collection service to learn how to dispose of old appliances properly. Some companies will pick your items up curbside for no charge or a minimal fee.</p></div>

Q: Do I need special cookware for a convection oven?

• <div><p>No; all cookware can be used in a convection oven. That said, some cookware performs better than others. Bright aluminum or light-colored pans are best for convection ovens, as bakeware with an anodized finish can cause food to brown too quickly. Ceramic and some glass dishes are not as effective at directing heat, so they work better in conventional ovens.</p></div>

Q: What is a good wattage for a microwave?

• <div><p>The standard for most microwave recipes and instructions is 1,000 watts. Other aspects of your microwave need to be considered like size, functionality, and where it will be installed, but 1,000 watts is considered the standard for home cooking. Lower-end models will be 700 watts or less, causing them to heat food more slowly. The maximum wattage for a microwave is usually 1,700 watts.</p></div>

With a gas stove, it’s easy to adjust the heat and flame size, which gives you more control and speeds up cooking times. Preheating and boiling water are also quicker with a gas stove versus an electric stove. However, gas stoves have drawbacks as well, including the fact that they release toxic fumes when in use. Plus, they’re more expensive and harder to clean than electric stoves.

Hiring a reputable appliance removal company can start with a referral from a family member or friend or online recommendation. Research the company to ensure they have positive customer reviews and provide the services you need within your budget.

Ask your potential appliance removal company the following questions before hiring:

Are you able to disconnect my appliance before removing it?
Are you fully insured?
Does the removal price include the cost of dumping?
Do you offer any kind of warranty that covers damage to my property during the removal?

While smaller appliances might fit in your trash bin, many municipalities and private waste collection companies prohibit throwing them away with your regular trash. Contact your trash collection service to learn how to dispose of old appliances properly. Some companies will pick your items up curbside for no charge or a minimal fee.
