Time of accountability

If and when I bring in a A/C or Fridge I have to sign a document stating how the Freon was removed .

Kind of funny how the epa doesn't want you releasing O zone into the O zone, isn't it?

My yard takes them and removes the freon or r12 or what ever ya want to call it there self. They only pay shred price tho. better than the refidgerant depleating the ozone

My yard also will remove any Freon and pay shred price. Must be a Chicago thing.

Where have you taken them to that would pay you a higher price than shred? My yard takes them but I know of a myriad of yards in my area that don't take them because of the hassle of the freon and/or because of all the fluff (insulation,plastics etc.)

wow, I must be the lucky one. My local yard takes them with no hassle @ $.90lb. I don't understand why a scrap yard would remove the coolant for free, then only give you shred price for the sealed compressor, I mean, you know they are re-selling the coolant for about $6.00 per lb. Not to mention all of the #2 Copper they are gaining from it.


I HATE crooks! A Scrap Yard that will rip-off it's customer's like that should be shut down. JMHO


Be Safe and Happy Scrapping !!!!!
