If you look hard enough you might be able to recycle those old appliances, and they will likely be reconditioned and find a good home in a household less privileged than yours, or broken down into their reusable parts and used to help rejuvenate other salvageable units.
The first place to check is with your utility, which would like to see you upgrade to a more energy- efficient new model—an older fridge uses upward of three times the energy of most newer ones. Utilities in 10 U.S. states and in Ontario, Canada, offer some kind of rebate and free pickup if you upgrade in partnership with a company called Appliance Recycling Centers of America, Inc. (ARCA), which oversees the appliance-recycling process. ARCA's system can prevent up to 95 percent of the recyclable materials in old refrigerators and freezers from entering the waste stream.
But what if neither option is available in your area? Check out the nonprofit Web site Earth911.org, a free online database of recyclers for anything imaginable across the U.S. Search for the keyword "appliance" and enter in your ZIP code. You will likely find more than one option within driving distance, but don't be surprised if, like with a municipality, you have to pay not only to recycle your poor old, broken-down fridge but also for pickup if you need it.
If the appliance is still working, another alternative would be to donate it to a worthy cause which can either find it a good home with a needy family or sell it and put the proceeds into its programs. The housing nonprofit Habitat for Humanity runs Habitat ReStores to resell donated goods in 48 U.S. states and nine Canadian provinces. Appliances as well as donated furniture, home accessories and building materials are sold to the general public at a fraction of the retail price to help local affiliates fund the construction of Habitat for Humanity homes within their communities, while simultaneously keeping reusable appliances and other materials out of the waste stream.
