Benefits
- Get $35.00 & FREE Recycling
- Save Money: By recycling your secondary refrigerator or freezer, you’ll save up to $100 a year in energy costs, or as much as $800 over its remaining life.
- Save Natural Resources: The average refrigerator 15 years old or older contains about 120 pounds* of steel and uses twice as much energy as a new ENERGY STAR® refrigerator. Recycling with us ensures sustainable handling of old refrigerant and foam that would otherwise demand landfill space. You can save as much as $260 over the next five years and reduce your carbon footprint by 8,200 pounds when replacing an old refrigerator with ENERGY STAR®.
