Find a "home" for waste items
In life, many people have seen such a scene in residential communities: old toilets, old furniture, waste household appliances, etc. are abandoned next to the trash can, waiting for someone to take things away. What to do with these bulky household items? Are there any clear recycling channels? On May 13, the reporter conducted an interview.
He told reporters that his old house should be renovated and he wanted to dispose of some old objects, but because of the high floors, no elevator, large volume and heavy quality, many masters who collect waste products are unwilling to take it. Not only do you not get any money for selling these things, but you also need to pay a "disposal fee". "In the end, I had to bundle the things that could still be used at home and could be sold for money with these objects, and some people reluctantly agreed to remove them." This netizen sighed.
With the continuous improvement of living standards, the public's demand for the integrated replacement of large household items continues to increase, and the elimination of large household items has become a difficult problem. "The public areas in the courtyard are already limited, and if these large items are discarded in the courtyard, it not only crowds the road, but also increases the burden on the sanitation workers. I don't want to go, and I am afraid of causing conflicts in the neighborhood, so I really hope that the relevant departments can give the eliminated household items a 'home'. Netizens "opened victoriously" said. "The electronic components in some household appliances will release harmful substances after aging and expiration, causing invisible damage to the human body." Ms. Shi, who works in the environmental protection industry, said that she had done market research and that many residents did have a need to recycle large household items.
The reporter learned from the interview that due to the lack of convenient recycling points, these eliminated large household items were either discarded at will or dismantled by some illegal dismantling points. An old man who walked the streets and alleys to recycle old household appliances told reporters that these old items are worthless, and washing machines, old computers, etc., whether good or bad, are dozens of yuan. Dealing with these things takes up space and takes time, and he takes them back and sells them as parts.
Previously, the relevant ministries and commissions of the state jointly issued the "Notice on Encouraging Household Appliance Manufacturers to Carry out Recycling Target Responsibility Actions", proposing a series of policies to encourage household appliance manufacturers to implement recycling. Nowadays, many home appliance manufacturers are carrying out "trade-in" activities, and some companies can even provide free disassembly services.
For a long time, the recycling level of large-scale household items has been low, the management is not standardized, and the necessary recycling facilities are lacking, and the "last mile" of recycling has not been opened. Recently, 19 departments including the Department of Commerce of Henan Province jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the Trade-in of Consumer Goods in Henan Province", which mentioned that the transformation and upgrading of the household appliance recycling network, support the construction of recycling outlets, sorting centers, dismantling facilities and other projects, and improve the efficiency of recycling, transit and distribution. The staff of an environmental protection enterprise in our city told reporters that they have paid attention to this problem and are considering joining forces with some qualified enterprises to jointly establish recycling channels and management systems to achieve the reduction, harmlessness and resource disposal of large household items.
Car transducer
There are many double subsidy discounts
Automobile consumption is an important part of residents' consumption. At present, the car trade-in project has begun, what is the trend of the consumer market? What's new? On May 11, the reporter went to the northern Henan automobile market for an interview.
There are second-hand car trading places in the market, and more new car stores. At the entrance to the market, in a new car sales store, cars of different styles are parked. Duan Wenbin, manager of the automobile sales and marketing department, is sorting out the car sales information, he said: "A new round of car trade-in has begun, which will definitely drive the consumption of the automobile market, and we have prepared sufficient supplies to meet the diversified needs of consumers as much as possible." ”
On May 7, the Provincial Department of Commerce and other 19 departments jointly issued the "Henan Province Implementation Plan for Promoting the Trade-in of Consumer Goods", mentioning that from May 7 to the end of this year, individual consumers will scrap fuel vehicles with emission standards of China III and below or new energy passenger vehicles more than 6 years old, and purchase new energy passenger vehicles with a subsidy of 10,000 yuan; Individual consumers will scrap fuel vehicles with emission standards of China III and below, and purchase fuel passenger vehicles with a displacement of less than 2.0 A subsidy of 7,000 yuan. At the same time, cities and counties are encouraged to give subsidies to consumers who replace old cars with new ones, and the provincial finance will give appropriate incentives and subsidies; Encourage automobile manufacturers and sales enterprises to independently carry out second-hand car replacement subsidies and superimposed preferential concession activities.
"In fact, we have always had a replacement subsidy for car buyers, replacing old cars with new cars, with a subsidy of 5,000 yuan for cars of the same brand and a subsidy of 3,000 yuan for different brands, and consumers can enjoy the subsidy as long as they provide transaction tickets." Duan Wenbin said that now, the government departments also have subsidies, coupled with corporate concessions, consumers can save a lot by tradeping in the old for the new.
What style of car is more popular with consumers? Duan Wenbin pointed to a small new energy passenger car and said: "It must be a new energy passenger car, especially this kind of small, energy-saving and convenient parking in the city." Yan Dong, a staff member of an automobile sales department specializing in the sale of new energy passenger vehicles, also told reporters: "It is precisely because of the good market prospects of new energy passenger vehicles that the manufacturers to which we sell cars last year transformed from the production of fuel vehicles to the production of new energy passenger vehicles." Moreover, the addition of intelligent technology and intelligent management to new energy passenger vehicles, such as autonomous driving technology, is very popular with young consumers. ”
Cui Zhifeng, a consumer who has transferred several car company stores, is a "post-00" and is preparing to change to a new car. He said: "New energy vehicles are the first choice, and I prefer intelligent ones with a better driving experience." Let's take a walk today, and in two days exchange the old car at home for a new one. ”
How to apply for the car trade-in subsidy? The reporter learned that consumers can enter the application through the "National Automobile Circulation Information Management" system website or the "car trade-in" applet.
Appliances are renewed

The reporter saw that many businesses have played "old for new" advertisements, almost all of the household appliances in the store are posted with billboards, corridors, aisles, "old for new" slogans can be seen everywhere. A staff member told reporters: "Many goods can be 'traded-in', and this year's event has more products and greater publicity." Generally speaking, 'trade-in' can deduct 200 yuan to 300 yuan, regardless of the brand, whether good or bad, you can participate in the event. Some businesses don't even take away the old machine, and then make profits to consumers. ”
The reporter interviewed and found that in addition to the trade-in, merchants have also launched other promotional activities, some brands have launched "group purchase coupons" benefits, and consumers can also superimpose in-store promotional activities to buy new products after receiving coupons on the online platform; Some brands have launched "10-year warranty", free cleaning and other services; Some products are mainly intelligent, and users can control them remotely as long as they connect to their mobile phones. Nowadays, "washing machine + dryer" washing and drying sets, dishwashers and sweeping robots and other intelligent home appliances are entering more and more homes. A salesperson told reporters: "According to the needs of consumers, merchants will launch different goods, some are economical, some can meet the needs of high-quality life, but on the whole, green and energy-saving products sell the best." ”
"Come in and see, this is our new TV. Its biggest highlight is'seamless adsorption', separate design, stereo surround, not to mention the picture and color, which can meet the needs of family viewing. The clerk said to consumers who were buying TVs, "The promotional activities during the 'May Day' period are still continuing, as long as you really want to buy, the price can be negotiated." "Nowadays, many consumers still value cost performance, and similar products with low price, good quality and high energy efficiency are more popular." A citizen who had just bought a TV told reporters.
So, which appliances do consumers most want to join the trade-in campaign? The reporter interviewed and learned that some consumers hope that the trade-in activities of large household appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines will be implemented, so that consumers can really get benefits. Another part of consumers said that the replacement of large household appliances is slow, and it is more affordable for small household appliances to join the event. "After replacing the old electric baking pan at home before, I increased the price by 50 yuan and replaced it with a new one. Small household appliances are broken and the cost of repairing them is slightly higher, and it is a pity to throw them away. This kind of activity is good. Citizen Gao Min said. Ms. Dong, a citizen, said that there are many broken small household appliances at home, and it would be better if different types of small household appliances could be exchanged for the products they needed.
Home decoration kitchen and bathroom "new".
Green, intelligent and energy-saving have become the first choice
With a slight kick, the toilet lid automatically rises, freeing your hands; With a wave of your hand, the range hood hidden in the wall cabinet can be lowered; Remote control, the mattress is bent into an S shape, allowing the body to fit and relax...... Nowadays, in the home furnishing store, green, intelligent, energy-saving products emerge in an endless stream, taking advantage of the current upsurge of trade-in, the home market will also be "renewed"? On May 13, the reporter visited some of the city's home furnishing markets.
On the morning of the same day, in a home improvement and building materials market located in the middle of Wenming Avenue, the reporter met Ms. Niu, a citizen. "I just bought a new house for my child in March this year, and now the hard decoration will end soon." She told reporters, who was consulting the whole house customization. After shopping around in the past few days, she learned that there are many wardrobe boards now, such as MDF, particle board, Ousong board, multi-layer board, and solid wood board, which is dazzling. "The child will get married at the end of the year, so in the selection of building materials, my biggest requirement is to have a high environmental protection level, such as wardrobes and cabinet panels, as well as the previous latex paint."
In addition to green building materials, smart and energy-saving products have also become a popular choice for consumers. In a bathroom shop on the first floor of the building materials market, the latest smart toilets are prominently displayed. "At the moment, the best selling in our store is the smart toilet. In the past, most of them were liked by young people, but now the customer base is wider, and many middle-aged and elderly people will choose smart or light smart toilets. Zhihong, a salesperson in the store, introduced. Now the smart toilet is no longer "unattainable", and you can buy a light smart toilet with a seat heating and automatic lid lifting for more than 2,000 yuan, and the price is about the same as that of an ordinary toilet. "Our smart toilet and light smart toilet are both water efficiency level 2, and its induction device will produce water according to the load-bearing time, providing consumers with quality life and saving water." Zhihong said.

The kitchen and bathroom are the core area of the family and an important functional area. In addition to the decoration of new houses, many consumers who renovate old houses also start with kitchen and bathroom renovation. Ms. Gao, who lives in Triangle Lake, originally bought a second-hand house, and the house had already been renovated when she bought the house. "I didn't redecorate because I had a limited budget. Now that I have a little more money, I want to clean up the kitchen. Ms. Gao, who is choosing a gas stove, said that at present, the cabinets have been replaced at home, and the next step is to choose a more energy-efficient stove and range hood.
During the interview, the reporter learned that some businesses have launched trade-in related activities, and at the same time, the merchants are still continuing the "May Day" discount and various combination package discount activities. "I saw the trade-in implementation plan issued by the province on the Internet, and I hope that businesses can launch relevant activities as soon as possible. In this way, the business will make some profits, and the government will subsidize it, and we will also be able to upgrade our consumption and enjoy a higher quality smart home. Ms. Niu, a citizen, said.
What did the trade-in get in for
A few days ago, the Provincial Department of Commerce and other departments jointly issued a document to promote the full implementation of the trade-in of consumer goods in Henan Province, and will focus on the implementation of the three major projects of car trade-in, home appliances trade-in and home decoration, kitchen and bathroom "renewal". Our city is also moving forward with this work. What changes has the trade-in of consumer goods brought to our production and life?
The trade-in of consumer goods has brought about an improvement in the quality of life of the masses. In the new round of consumer goods trade-in activities, the replacement of new products is more inclined to new energy passenger vehicles, green smart home appliances, smart electronic products, smart homes and other new products. These new products focus on green and intelligent, bringing a convenient and intelligent new experience to people's lives, especially some smart products for the elderly, which enhance the well-being of the elderly. The trade-in of consumer goods has led to a new fashion of consumption and improved the quality of life of the masses.
The trade-in of consumer goods has brought a new look to the consumer market. Consumers can enjoy a certain amount of subsidies by replacing the old with a new one through trade-in. Subsidies have stimulated market consumption and will surely set off a new round of consumption boom. Consumer goods such as automobiles, home appliances, home decoration, kitchen and bathroom, which are included in the scope of the trade-in subsidy, are an important part of residents' consumption and are also bulk consumer products. Subsidies from government departments and preferential concessions from some enterprises will certainly stimulate the consumer market and set off another consumption boom.
Consumer goods are traded in for the recycling of resources. At present, after the disposal of household products such as automobiles, home appliances, home decoration, kitchen and bathroom, some residents cannot find special recycling channels, and there will be littering of waste products, which may bring pollution to the environment. After the unified recycling of waste products, the possible environmental pollution is avoided, and the waste resources can be recycled, and the quality and level of economic circulation are greatly improved.
The trade-in of consumer goods has brought about high-quality economic development. Green and smart are the vanes of the consumer market. Stimulated by the trade-in policy, green and smart products favored by consumers will surely usher in hot sales. This is conducive to promoting investment and promoting enterprises to produce more green and smart products, thereby promoting the continuous increase in the proportion of advanced production capacity and enabling more high-quality durable consumer goods to enter people's lives. This can also promote local industries to climb to "high", make efforts to "new", move towards "green", and stride forward towards high-quality development.
Consumer goods trade-in, to the consumer's life and consumer market has brought a new look, the city's relevant departments to speed up the introduction of relevant policies, so that consumers as soon as possible to enjoy the policy dividends, bring new atmosphere, new changes.
