Appliances containing refrigerant or “freon” need to have the refrigerant evacuated by a licensed freon handler. Once the refrigerant has been recovered, the appliance can then be recycled. These items include refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers.
Call Wild Cat Solid Waste District for a list of vendors who are licensed to recover freon. Wild Cat Solid Waste District does not take freon containing appliances. (855) 659-4257.
