A Guide to Appliance Recycling
Do you know how to recycle appliances? Whether you're updating your home or disposing of broken items, we've got you covered. Remember, NEVER put appliances in your recycling bin. Instead, visit the resources below.
If your appliances are working, it is important to ensure they go to a new home. Use applications like Facebook Marketplace, or sell your items in person at a garage sale! If you would like to give your appliances away, list them on your local Buy Nothing Facebook group or donate them to a thrift store.
