How to Dispose of a Refrigerator or Appliance in Utah

Junk-A-Saurus · Salt Lake Valley

Old appliances are heavy, awkward, and can't just go to the curb — fridges and freezers contain refrigerant (freon) that has to be handled properly under federal rules. Here's how to get rid of one the easy way.

Why you can't just toss a fridge

Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners contain refrigerant that must be recovered before the unit is scrapped. Many transfer stations charge an extra fee for appliances with freon, and curbside trash won't take them at all.

Your options

• Retailer haul-away — some stores remove your old unit when they deliver a new one (often for a fee).
• Scrap/recycle yourself — possible, but you'll do the heavy lifting and handle the dump fees.
• Appliance pickup — we carry it out (even from a basement), load it, and recycle it responsibly.
