Appliance Recycle Program

Economical – Not only will you save money on your electric bill each month, but you’ll receive a $35 bounty on your old appliance.
Convenient – We’ll come and pick up your appliance for free, at a day and time that works for you.
Environmentally Responsible – We’ll recycle over 95% of the appliance materials, and dispose of any hazardous materials according to EPA guidelines.
