WHY APPLIANCE RECYCLING?

We believe that properly handling appliances at the end of their useful life is critical to preserving resources for future generations. ARCA Recycling’s proprietary processes contribute to environmental protection in the following ways:

  • Reduce Energy Consumption — Recycling appliances ensures they are taken off the energy grid and are not resold in the secondhand market, where they continue to operate inefficiently and waste energy.
  • Landfill Diversion — Recycling one refrigerator or freezer keeps approximately 150 lbs. of material out of the waste stream.
  • Avoid Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions — Older cooling appliances typically have refrigerants and insulating foam containing chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons, both GHGs. Properly capturing and disposing of these materials is critical, as they can contribute to ozone depletion and climate change.
  • Handle Hazardous Materials Properly — ARCA Recycling ensures that hazardous waste found in appliances, including used oil, PCB-containing capacitors, and mercury-containing components, is properly handled, preventing its release into water and soil. This protects human health and natural resources.
