HOW TO RECYCLE A FRIDGE

One of the main benefits of replacing an old refrigerator with a new one is to reduce energy usage, as newer refrigerators are a lot more energy-efficient than older ones. But after the new refrigerator has been delivered, what does the customer now do with the old unit? It is hard to believe, but every year more than 9 million refrigerators are disposed of in the United States. A percentage of them can be refurbished or resold, others are recycled, and the rest end up in landfills.

Dangerous Content

Fridge-Recycling ImageFor those that can be recycled, the metal can be shredded and recycled while the insulating foam is shredded and sent to landfills. Refrigerators manufactured before 1995 used Freon-12 as a coolant which can be very damaging to the ozone layer if leaked. Newer models use HFC-134a instead, which still requires careful handling during the disposal process. In addition, up until 2005 refrigerators were insulated with foam that also contained ozone-depleting substances and posed a hazard. Only refrigerators manufactured within the last ten years contain foam-blowing agents that are both ozone and climate friendly.

Here is a sample listing of the materials that could compose a 1995 refrigerator:

140 lbs. metal,
20 lbs. plastic,
3 lbs. glass,
1 lb. CFC-11 foam insulation,
0.5 lbs. used oil (may be contaminated),
0.5 lb. Freon-12 refrigerant,
0.0003 lb. mercury containing components,
Trace small amount of PCBs contained in capacitors.

This list clearly shows how important it is to recycle an old refrigerator and not just put it into a landfill as a whole. Almost all of the materials contained in a refrigerator including the metal cabinet, the plastic liner, the glass shelves, the refrigerant, the oil in the compressor and the blowing agent can be recycled.

Responsible Refrigerator Recycling

We offer the perfect solution. All Green Electronics Recycling is an ethical electronics recycling company specializing in recycling refrigerators. One benefit of our service is that the customer can either call to arrange for a free pick up or he can drop the old unit off at one of our convenient nationwide pick-up locations.

Unlike with other companies where this first step is also the last step in the process we offer online tracking of the whole process on our website. If our expert staff determines that the old unit can either be repaired or re-used then it is salvaged. If it cannot be re-used then it will be recycled for its precious metals and materials, thus limiting landfill waste.

Another benefit of our service is that in many cases the customer will receive payment for the materials and parts that could be recycled. In addition the customer can be assured that the recycling is performed ethically, and that the parts will not ultimately end up in the landfill of a foreign country, as has happened before with some of our competitors.
