Proper Disposal of Your Appliance

We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Check with your
utility company or visit
www. recyclemyoldfridge.com for more
information on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw away your
old appliance:

removed by a
qualified service
technician.
