Let us pick up your old refrigerator or freezer and we'll give you $50!

Central Hudson can help lower your monthly energy bills - and pay you to do it! Starting June 21, we'll give you $50 to recycle your old, working refrigerator or freezer. We'll even pick it up, free of charge, and properly recycle it. Have an old air conditioner? We will gladly pick it up along with a qualifying refrigerator or freezer and properly recycle that as well.*

While that old appliance in the basement or garage may provide additional storage, it's not worth the additional cost on your electric bill. By recycling your old appliance, you can save up to $100 a year on your energy bill. We make it easy for you to save the environment and your wallet.

*No recycling incentive offered for air conditioners. Visit our cool savings page for rebates on new air conditioners.

With Central Hudson's Appliance Recycling Program, over 95 percent of the appliance is properly destroyed and recycled, preventing it from entering a landfill.


	Each old refrigerator or freezer requires an average of 700 to 1,600 kilowatt-hours (kwh) to operate annually.
	If a spare refrigerator used in a basement or garage is removed and not replaced, energy savings can amount to 1,200 kWh/year, with an average $100 reduction in annual electricity charges.*
	*Actual energy and cost savings will vary by equipment model and region. These estimates are conservative and based on national averages (www.energystar.gov).
