3 Reasons to Recycle Your Old Appliances

Eventually, you will replace every appliance in your home. Things you use daily or regularly are likely to wear out quicker than others. But over time, everything you use needs an update. Today’s appliances come with new technologies and features designed to make your life easier. So, if you’re looking to upgrade your washer and dryer, refrigerator, or any other appliance, call ABC Junk Removal & Hauling. We offer appliance recycling, and here are three reasons you should do this.

1. Protection for the Environment

Throwing out old appliances creates a lot of unnecessary waste and pollutants. Stoves, refrigerators, freezers, and washing machines are all made of materials that can cause significant problems for landfills and wildlife. In addition, these appliances are notorious for leaking their housed chemicals, further polluting groundwater. So, it's just best to always recycle these items. 

2. Scrap Metal Can Be Recycled

If you want to reduce your carbon footprint and help other companies promote recycling, then it's time to call us for appliance recycling. Most of your old appliances are made of steel, aluminum, and other materials that can easily be repurposed. In fact, manufacturers can melt these old pieces down and produce new ones, giving your appliances a new purpose. 

3. Moral Responsibility

While Indiana doesn't have any state law prohibiting e-waste in landfills, residents are encouraged to recycle, reuse, or repurpose old home appliances. If you can't find a new household project or use for your old washer or freezer, then do the moral and ethical thing by recycling. That's where we come in! We'll gladly take your old appliances, giving you peace of mind about your choice!
