Recycling Appliances in Pennsylvania: What to Know

🧊 Fridges, freezers & AC
Contain refrigerant that must be recovered by a certified tech — often a small fee.

Mostly steel; scrap yards and many transfer stations take them, sometimes free.

How to Prepare Appliances

  • Appliances with freon (fridge/freezer/AC) usually need certified refrigerant recovery — ask about the fee.
  • Many scrap yards take freon-free metal appliances at no charge.
  • Secure or remove doors from old fridges for safety.
