How to Properly Dispose of an Old Vacuum Cleaner
When disposing of a vacuum, you should first unplug it and remove any detachable parts such as bags, filters, and attachments. Next, check with your local recycling program to see if they accept vacuums or certain vacuum components. If they do not accept them, consider donating or selling the vacuum if it is in working condition. If the vacuum is no longer functional, it can be thrown away in the regular trash.
