Scratch and Dent Appliances Near Mount Pleasant
Your First Choice for Scratch and Dent Appliances in Mount Pleasant
In a day and age where big box stores sell overpriced appliances to hardworking men and women, droves of Americans are flocking to scratch and dent retailers. At Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair, we understand that money doesn't grow on trees. That's why we offer our customers the largest selection of overstock and scratch and dent appliances in South Carolina.
Finding a reputable, clean discount appliance store can be challenging. Unfortunately, companies in our industry get a bad rap. Sometimes, they earn it with dingy, poorly-lit stores, empty shelves, and mediocre customer service. At Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair, we are proud to give our customers the "big box" structure of major chains mixed with personable service and affordable pricing of a discount appliance business. Our store is clean, our shelves are stocked, and our staff is ready and waiting to exceed your expectations.
The surge in popularity of scratch and dent appliances might be new, but we are far from a "fly by night" appliance store. As a locally owned and operated appliance store, we have worked very hard to build trust with our customers. We have years of experience selling quality scratch and dent appliances in South Carolina, from washers and dryers to outdoor grills and everything in between.

Ask yourself this: Why should you pay top-dollar prices for brand new "in the box" appliances when you can have them out of the box with the same warranty for a significant amount less? When you begin to think about buying scratch and dent appliances in Mount Pleasant, it begins to make all the sense in the world.
Don't let the term "scratch and dent" scare you - all of our appliances are high-quality, name-brand products that are in great condition. You won't ever have to worry about an inoperable oven or a faulty dryer when you shop at Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair. Our appliances are all unused and shipped to use straight off the assembly line. That's right - you're paying bottom-of-the-barrel prices for brand new products that your family and friends will love.
You might be asking yourself, "What's the catch?" It might sound too good to be true, but there isn't any catch. Our scratch and dent appliances are sold at deep discounts because a minor cosmetic issue developed somewhere along the line. A few common reasons why appliances are labeled as scratch and dent include:
- The product's external packaging was slightly damaged
- The product has a small scratch that is barely visible
- The product has a slight dent that is hard to see
- The product has a tiny "ding" from being moved around in the warehouse
Unlike some of our competitors, our skilled technicians perform rigorous multi-point examinations on all our appliances. That way, you can rest easy knowing that your out-of-the-box appliance is ready for regular use as soon as it arrives at your home. With a one-year warranty on most scratch and dent items, our customers leave our showroom with a smile on their face knowing their purchase is protected.
And that, in a nutshell, is the Preferred Appliance Sales and Repairs difference: quality appliances, helpful customer service, and real warranties that you can feel good about.
Scratch and Dent Appliances Are They Right for You?
Here's the truth: Nobody wants an old, beat-up appliance with huge dents and scratches. Fortunately, we're not talking about a banged-up dishwasher that barely works. Scratch and dent appliances are just like brand new, except they have a small nick that's barely noticeable. The question is, are you OK with a small dent if it means you could save 25% off your purchase? What about 50% off? If you were to do a Google search on a name-brand appliance and compare its price to the same item in our showroom, you would see just how cost-effective scratch and dent shopping can be.
The majority of our customers are savvy shoppers who don't mind tiny imperfections if it means that they will get a great deal. In many cases, these imperfections are paint-based, which are easily fixed with a little elbow grease. If you're in the market for a fully functional, nearly-new appliance and don't mind a small blemish, buying scratch and dent appliances is a great choice that won't break your bank.

How to Get the Most Out of Your Scratch and Dent Appliances
Appliances can be a big investment, even if you're buying them at significant discounts. Of course, you want to keep your appl ances in good shape, so they continue working properly for years. Once you buy one of our scratch and dent appliances, keep in mind these tips to keep your new merchandise in great working order:
Clean Inside and Out
All appliances need to be cleaned, even washing machines. As an example, cleaning the coils of your new scratch and dent refrigerator will keep it running efficiently.
Only Use Appliances as They Were Intended
If your kids love to play near your appliances, be sure they aren't standing or sitting on them. If you're using a scratch and dent dishwasher or clothes dryer, don't overload them. If your appliance requires specific products, like a high-efficiency laundry detergent, only use the recommended products.
Change filters
You probably know that clothes drying machines have filters that must be changed. However, other appliances like dishwashers and ice makers can also have filters. Read your appliance's manual to see if your product has a filter, and if so, how often it needs to be changed.
Overstock Appliances in Mount Pleasant
Much like our scratch and dent merchandise, overstock appliances have become incredibly popular in recent times. While many savvy shoppers already know about the deals associated with overstock items, others hear "overstock appliances" and immediately think something is wrong. Nothing could be further from the truth!
There's a simple explanation for overstock appliances in South Carolina, and it's right in the name. Overstock items are products that manufacturers have made too many of or have a surplus of stock that needs to be sold. This is great news for shoppers who can get new, brand-name appliances at a fraction of their original cost.
There are many reasons why a manufacturer might need to sell their merchandise as overstock:
- A retail store closes its doors, and its appliances and other stock must be liquidated
- A retail store has an item that doesn't sell as well as they had hoped
- The manufacturer or their partners overestimated the amount of stock that they needed
While overstock items are perfectly normal, some customers think they aren't worth purchasing because of a perceived "expiration date." The fact is, overstock and surplus appliances are common in every industry because inventory management isn't an easy job. Sometimes people make errors, but those mistakes can turn into amazing opportunities for high-quality appliances at great prices.
Overstock Appliances Explained
Retailers have to deal with surplus merchandise all the time because older stock must be removed to make room for newer appliances. When a retailer has a surplus of a particular appliance, they will typically reach out to the manufacturer to see if they can return their overstocked appliances. Because these manufacturers charge retailers to restock these surplus items, many retailers choose instead to off-load their stock at a discounted price, and that's where Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair steps in.
The bottom line? Overstock appliances in Mount Pleasant are common, brand new, and waiting for you to check out at our showroom. We carry all the major appliance brand names, like Whirlpool, LG, Bosch, Maytag, Kenmore, and even Samsung. Unlike our scratch and dent products, you aren't going to find any minor dings or scratches on our overstock appliances. It sounds too good to be true, but it isn't - when manufacturers make too much, you're in luck.
At Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair, we have a vast selection of overstock appliances for you to choose from, including:
- Microwaves
- Washers
- Dryers
- Refrigerators
- Stoves
- TVs
- Dishwashers
- Much More!
Buy Scratch And Dent Appliances, Help Save The Environment
Buying overstock or scratch and dent appliances in South Carolina is not just a way to get a great deal on a name-brand product - it's also a great way to help protect our environment. As you might have guessed, unused scratch and dent merchandise usually end up in a landfill to sit and rot. When these appliances are brought to landfills, they release toxic greenhouse gases and harmful substances as their chemical and metal composition deteriorate.
When you buy a scratch and dent appliance from Preferred Appliance Sales and Repair, know that you are doing your part to help protect our environment. When you break it down, buying products and appliances that would otherwise go to a landfill is a win-win. You're getting an incredible discount on a high-quality appliance and you're diminishing the harmful greenhouse gases that harm our precious environment.

Mount Pleasant mulls protections for historic settlement communities to close annexation 'loophole'

MOUNT PLEASANT — Town leaders are considering adopting more protections for Gullah Geechee communities — historic Black neighborhoods situated primarily in unincorporated areas within Mount Pleasant — that mirror those set by Charleston County.
Two recent annexation requests from landowners in the Hamlin Beach Community prompted the discussion at the town's planning committee meeting May 5.
These properties would become part of the town of Mount Pleasant, a move that could sidestep historic protections enforced by Charleston County.
Residents urged the town's planning committee to take up similar protections and close a gap that could put Black communities at risk of overdevelopment and displacement.
"It should not be that loophole, that they annex out of our area just to build these subdivisions," said Myra Richardson, president of the Hamlin Beach Community Association. "We're just asking you to protect our history, our heritage, our legacy."
Resisting development
Mount Pleasant's Gullah Geechee communities, often referred to as settlement communities, have long been resistant to annexation. Concerns about overdevelopment have led property owners to stay in unincorporated Charleston County, even as these communities are surrounded by town property.
Hamlin Beach, nestled behind Rifle Range Road on Hamlin Sound, became the fourth neighborhood designated as a historic district by the county in 2025.
Hamlin Beach seeking historical protections from Mount Pleasant, to fight overdevelopment and close a loophole that developers have used to get around a county-level subdivision moratorium by annexing into the town.

The recognition came with stronger building restrictions and review processes for new developments. A two-year moratorium, established in July 2024, also prohibits construction of major subdivisions within the district. The county considers a major subdivision to be a parcel of land split into five or more lots.
Shortly after the county approved the recognition, Mount Pleasant's planning commission reviewed an annexation request for a 3.11-acre tract of land on Hamlin Beach Road.
The developer told planning commission members in April that the motivation for annexing was to gain access to town water and sewer services. If approved, the property would see some development restrictions from the town, including limits to how many homes could be built per acre and how big lots could be.
But the property would no longer be beholden to the county's subdivision moratorium, nor review from the county Historic Preservation Commission.
Town Council gave the initial thumbs up for the request in April, though Charleston County Council opposed the move.
Larry Kobrovsky, a county councilman who represents much of Mount Pleasant, told committee members on May 5 that the area is at a "tipping point." He urged the town to pause the annexation.
"We're trying to do everything we can to preserve historic communities and keep the area rural," Kobrovsky said.
Recommending protections
Chaired by Councilwoman G.M. Whitley, Mount Pleasant's planning committee agreed that annexation should not be used to get around building restrictions.
"It's created this disparity between our community of Mount Pleasant and the county to where people who have sold out their properties … they're trying to escape, basically, these historic overlays into our town," Whitley said.
A Mount Pleasant 'car condominium' celebrates grand opening while another fails to get green light

MOUNT PLEASANT — While one luxury car storage facility is celebrating its grand opening in Mount Pleasant, a town planning committee hit the brakes on a proposal for a second.
The luxury storage site, or "car condominiums," are individually owned garage-focused properties with their own TMS number on commercially zoned land.
They are built to be upwards of 1,500 square feet of climate-controlled space with nearly 20-foot ceilings, suitable for storing luxury vehicles, RVs, classic cars, boats and more.
The price tag? Around $400,000 per car "condo."
Mount Pleasant’s first car condominium, The Vault, located on Faison Road about halfway between Costco Wholesale and Mount Pleasant Regional Airport, will celebrate its grand opening May 30. The project broke ground in September 2024.
The Vault owner Lee Janik said the 29-unit property on two acres was fully leased well in advance of its opening, a testament to the needs of Mount Pleasant where people own multiple luxury vehicles, boats and RVs. The development company kept two units in hand but will list them for sale shortly after opening and expects to sell them both quickly.
“It’s for high-net-worth individuals with too many toys and nowhere to put them. Homeowners Association’s don’t allow anything in driveways,” Janik said. “I sold four units before I even owned the property. There are a number of (clients) who bought two units.”
Janik, who came up with his concept in 2021 as an offshoot of a luxury indoor boat storage business he owned in Ohio, is now in nine different markets working with real estate agents, car enthusiasts and more. He uses word-of-mouth to garner interest.
Owners get 24/7 access with water, bathrooms, kitchens and even loft-style living rooms for lounging with a secure access gate. The only restriction is that owners can’t live in the units or sleep inside them overnight.
He announced The Vault’s next expansion will be on Daniel Island, with property already under contract and the ability to build residential units on top of the mega-garages.
“We already have ten units sold on Daniel Island,” Janik said. “We sell units before we build, so we can customize the size (needed).”
Janik said he expects the Daniel Island location to be open in the next year-and-a-half.
Despite the demand for these types of developments, a second car condominium proposed for Mount Pleasant by another developer wasn't given the green light from two town planning bodies.
A proposed 55-unit car condominium over four acres in the Belle Hall Planned Unit Development, accessible from Seacoast Parkway and adjacent to Long Point Road, was recommended for denial by the Mount Pleasant Planning Committee and Planning Commission May 5. Florida-based developer WHWE, LLC proposed the project.
Chris Pilinko, with WHWE, LLC, said the luxury storage facility would be priced between $400,000 and $500,000, and would include a monthly regime fee.
“We've done three of these in other markets and have a local partner who has identified this site. They're very low intensity uses. They have no demand on public services,” Pilinko said at the planning meeting.
Committee members said there were better uses for the commercially zoned location than the use for individually owned garages to store luxury vehicles.
“I think the residents would much prefer a grocery store or a restaurant as an amenity to the community rather than $400,000 to $500,000-owned storage,” said Guang Ming Whitley, planning committee chairman and town council member.
The vote was three to deny the request and one abstention, with committee member Jake Rambo wanting more information about car condominiums before voting on the issue.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Specialty grocer The Fresh Market marked a major milestone on Saturday, May 3, with the grand opening of its newest store in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. This brings the total number of locations to 172 nationwide.
The highly anticipated launch drew large crowds as the Mount Pleasant community turned out in numbers to welcome the brand's Greater Charleston area debut. Shoppers gathered early to be among the first to experience The Fresh Market’s signature blend of gourmet offerings, fresh ingredients, and impeccable hospitality.
“We are extremely pleased with the response to our new store,” said Brian Johnson, CEO of The Fresh Market. “We have a great team that is excited to bring our brand of impeccable hospitality to the town of Mount Pleasant.”
Opening day festivities included The Fresh Market’s beloved traditions, such as a ceremonial bread breaking and the cracking of an 80-pound wheel of Parmesan cheese. Early guests were treated to exclusive giveaways: the first 120 received a complimentary 4-inch potted orchid, while the first 500 were gifted a reusable Mount Pleasant-themed grocery bag.
Reinforcing its commitment to community partnerships, The Fresh Market launched its collaboration with the Lowcountry Food Bank by presenting a $2,000 donation to support local hunger relief efforts.
The new 25,000-square-foot store features a thoughtfully curated selection of premium meats and seafood, fresh produce, local products, and an array of international items. Shoppers can also enjoy restaurant-quality prepared meals and convenient ready-to-cook or ready-to-heat options tailored to busy lifestyles.
The Mount Pleasant store is the latest in a trio of recent openings, following launches in Wethersfield, Connecticut, and Jensen Beach, Florida, just one week prior. The Fresh Market has opened 11 retail locations and introduced its new Spirits & Wine concept in the last six months, marking a significant growth phase for the company.

Updates on Patriots Annex, a mixed-use project planned for Mount Pleasant

A possible rezoning for Patriots Annex, a waterfront development at Patriots Point, was postponed at a recent Mount Pleasant Town Council meeting. The project is currently zoned as a WG-C, Cooper River Waterfront Gateway District, and could be changed to Patriots Annex PD, a Planned Development District Ordinance.
Several community members shared concerns at the meeting on Tuesday, April 8, and emphasized why they thought it was important to maintain public accessibility to waterfront areas. The council said they needed additional information and community input before moving forward.
What is Patriots Annex? An upcoming waterfront development at Patriots Point, spanning more than 30 acres. Once complete, the project will offer locals and visitors a space to relax, dine, and work.
Here’s a sneak peek at what’s in store for Patriots Annex: a mix of homes, dining, docks + pedestrian paths, and hotels — plus a conference center, amphitheater, and more.
Back in October 2022, Bennett Hospitality and the Patriots Point Development Authority Board held a groundbreaking ceremony. The project, which was initially approved by state supervisors, aims to boost tourism and economic growth in the area.
A study conducted by the University of South Carolina’s Darla Moore School of Business projects that once the Patriots Point Annex project is completed, it will bring in $400 million in revenue — the study also found the area would create around 3,000 permanent jobs and $130 million in labor income.

As we celebrate and admire the remarkable homes .in our community in this edition, let’s take a minute to reflect on the nature of Mount Pleasant and what makes this one of the most desirable communities in the nation.
I have had the privilege of observing Mount Pleasant in every phase of my life: childhood, young adulthood and middle to senior age. I have seen it grow beyond what anyone could imagine and yet the essence of what makes it unique still exists. True, it is not the small, quaint fishing village it was when my family first moved here and yet the tight-knit fishing community still exists with all its quaintness. The attendance of thousands of people at our annual Blessing of the Fleet celebration gives testimony to the importance of the local shrimping/fishing fleet among all our residents.
We now have exquisite homes, both old and new, all the way from the Old Village to the farthest reaches of the municipal limits. This shows that interest in living here and building remarkable residences has remained strong over several centuries.
As a member of your local government, I see it as our job to continue to protect the uniqueness of our town, its natural resources and its livability. The question is, how can that be accomplished?
These are some of the issues Mount Pleasant is identifying and addressing to keep our community livable and vibrant:
My wife Suzette and I have four grown children and have just moved my parents here into a senior living community. We wish our children could live here, but lack of affordability prevents it. We know that we are not alone in that. As your mayor, I continue to work with the council and affordable housing groups to find solutions. Our future as a healthy, complete community depends on it.
