- Washing machine replacement for social housing tenants
Washing machine replacement for social housing tenants
The NSW Government’s Washing Machine Replacement trial scheme allows over 40,000 eligible social housing tenants to replace their top loading washing machine with a new, more efficient model at a heavily discounted price. The swap will significantly reduce their water and power use and could reduce annual household water, electricity and detergent costs by $200-245 on average.
After early success the trial has been expanded to include all social and Aboriginal housing—including those managed by community housing providers—across NSW, meaning a further 90,000 could be eligible for a replacement. Customers can apply online before 30 September 2022.
