The Process
A little about how appliances are recycled in Washington State
At Curbside Junk Collection, we ensure refrigerators, freezers, and AC units are recycled responsibly. These appliances contain refrigerants like Freon, which can harm the environment if not handled properly. Here’s a little about how it works..
After your curbside pickup, we deliver appliances to a certified recycling facility. Technicians safely extract the refrigerant using special equipment, preventing leaks that could damage the ozone layer. This step follows strict EPA rules to protect the environment. Next, they remove other hazardous materials like oils, then shred the appliance. Metals like steel are separated, melted, and reused, while plastics and foam are processed or disposed of responsibly. The refrigerant is either purified for reuse or destroyed safely to avoid environmental harm.
This careful process is why we charge $125 for refrigerant appliances—it ensures safe handling. Remember to please empty items before your pickup. Serving Pierce County, we’re committed to eco-friendly appliance recycling. Book your pickup today!
