- Save energy
Older refrigerators or freezers use 2-3 times
more electricity than newer, ENERGY STAR® models.
- Save money
Getting rid of an older, rarely used second refrigerator or
freezer, or replacing an older unit with a newer, more energy efficient model, can
help you save money on your electric bill.
- Protect the environment
EWEB's contracted recycler, JACO Environmental,
will recycle at least 95% of each unit. At the same time, JACO safely disposes
of toxins and ozone-destroying gases from the foam insulation.

a date to pick up your old, operating refrigerator or freezer.

- JACO will mail you a $30 incentive check within approximately 14 business days of the pick-up,
and you will start saving on your electric bill.

- Your old refrigerator or freezer must be empty and in working condition.
