Why Recycle Your Unit?

Older refrigerators and freezers use less efficient technology, which can increase energy costs by up to $100 a year compared to newer models. That means you will save by upgrading or getting rid of an old, un-needed unit. Plus, participating in the Mass Save appliance recycling program ensures your unit is responsibly recycled.
