Room Air Conditioners

old AC

Room air conditioners contain refrigerants, oils, and other compounds that, by federal law, must be removed and recovered. Then the steel, other metals, and selected parts can be recycled.

Some utilities and other partners offer incentives to recycle older, inefficient room air conditioners. Enter your zip code, select the "Room Air Conditioner" box, and click the "locate special offers/rebates" button to find a room air conditioner recycling program in your area.


And Everything Else?

While utilities may not target other appliances for special collection, it's important that you contact your local waste management division to learn how to properly recycle those aging machines. Your municipality may collect an old water heater, oven or dishwasher on request — or they may give you the location of your nearest recycling facility for drop-off.
