Appliances (Refrigerant-Containing)

Many types of household appliances can be donated or recycled, including large appliances like refrigerators and freezers.

Quick tips

• If your appliance is in good working condition, please consider donating it to a charitable organization.
• If purchasing a new large appliance, check to see whether they will collect your old appliance for recycling when delivering a new item.
• Appliances that contain refrigerants, such as refrigerators and dehumidifiers, cannot be recycled as scrap metal or disposed of as trash, unless they have been certified by a refrigerant removal technician.  Local heating and cooling companies can provide this service.

Where can I recycle these items?

Refrigerant-containing appliances that have not been certified are accepted at the Medina County Solid Waste District’s Refrigerant-Containing Appliance Collection area within their campus in Seville every business day.
