When an old refrigerator is moved to a garage or basement, it takes twice as much energy to keep your food cold and can cost more than $100 a year to operate. To encourage recycling of old refrigerators, United Power members qualify for a refrigerator/freezer recycling credit to properly dispose of their old refrigerator or freezer. Don’t move that old refrigerator to the garage, recycle it to save energy and money.

Frequently Asked Questions
Typically, clothes dryers do not receive the Energy Star® label. The best way to improve efficiency and save energy while doing laundry is by improving the efficiency of your clothes washer. High-efficiency clothes washers use less water to wash and wring out more water from your clothes, which means your dryer doesn’t have to work as hard or run as long.
The ORIGINAL EnergyGuide label is required for all rebate requests in order to verify purchase of an approved Energy Star® appliance. Your model number should appear in the upper right corner of your EnergyGuide label.
Yes. United Power’s Recycling Credit is available to members for recycling old refrigerators. You must provide proof that either a retailer hauled your old appliance away or that a reputable appliance recycler disposed of your refrigerator or freezer.
Recycling credits are limited to two (2) per membership, per year.
