What can I do with dead vacum cleaners?
-
Dfm on Jan 17, 2016I'm a bit confused.....you have non functioning vacuum cleaners that you need to dispose of? or you need ideas of how to store the functioning ones? my area has spring and fall clean up days.... anything put at a certain spot at the curb is fair game for picking. some vacuums are picked up for parts to repair other machines. you might want to call a vac repair place to see if your old one can be stripped for parts. storing vac is another issue.. upright or canister vac? some uprights can be stashed in a garage, closet, under stairs, under beds. can vacs are a bit more cumbersome. i've seen my aunt park hers in a clean trash can, lying on its side of course, lid closed with cable tie. - parked next to the back door.Helpful Reply

Snapoutofit on Jan 17, 2016If you have vacuum cleaners that no longer work you can: 1. ask local Sew N Vac shops if they will take it 2. Call Veterans of America and see if they will take it and donate itHelpful Reply

MN Mom on Jan 18, 2016If they go not work don't donate them to charity. People who shop or take charity items need things that are usable. Please don't toss them in the garbage. Bring them to a recycling center or a vacuum repair to be used for parts.Helpful Reply

Chubby58 on Jan 18, 2016Cut the hose off and use it to make a wreath. donate the remaining parts to a repair shop. If it has a lot of metal and is heavy, you can take it to metal recycling plant and get a few $$$ for it.Helpful Reply
