There are several charities who do this sort of thing and are legit.
I wouldn't wish this one on anybody. Circa '50's maybe, with the
flap-down-door freezer. Was in the basement when we bought the house.
It keeps beer cold fine and runs real quiet. But I bet it's costing
me 15 bucks a month electricity and I only open it once every couple
weeks to grab a beer. It's gotta go.

Up here we have to notify the city before tossing a fridge. They send
someone to remove the refrigerant, and slap a sticker on saying the work was
done.
Then we can kick it to the curb.


We purchased a complete set of new white goods (appliances) last
year.last year. The company we purchased them from took all of our
old appliances, including the fridge.



I wonder what happens to them...probably just get scrapped.
