Bulky Waste

SCRAP METAL DEALERS
If you have metal items to recycle, you may be able to sell them to a scrap metal dealer. If the item was manufactured to contain refrigerant (such as refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, etc.) you will likely need to have the refrigerant recovered before recycling the item. Federal law requires that items manufactured to contain refrigerant must be evacuated by a properly trained and certified technician in order to reduce the risk of the release of refrigerant into the atmosphere. It is illegal to cut or intentionally break the refrigerant lines on any automobile or appliance.
