RECYC-FRIGO

Is a second fridge that's at least 10 years old draining your energy?

You want to get rid of it?

It's easy! All you have to do is sign up online or call 1 877 493-7446 to make an appointment for someone to pick up your old appliance*. Thanks to Recyc-Frigo, you could get a $60 cheque for each refrigerator or freezer collected (no more than two appliances per customer).

Are there any other advantages?

Getting rid of your old refrigerator allows you to decrease your electricity consumption and save. Did you know that refrigeration appliances ten years old or older consume, on average, 1.7 to 4.8 times more energy** than a new ENERGY STAR® qualified appliance?

Why pick up and recycle old refrigerators?

Recyc-Frigo aims to recycle over 300,000 energy guzzling refrigerators and freezers by the end of 2010. Thanks to this program

  • substantial energy savings are achieved;
  • 95% of the appliances' components are recycled.

It's a great way to help protect the environment!
