We’re not just here to haul—we’re here to help protect the environment, too.Appliances like refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioning units often contain refrigerants (like Freon) and other hazardous components that require special care during disposal. Dumping these items in a landfill without proper handling isn’t just harmful—it’s illegal.At Copper State Junk Removal & Hauling, we follow EPA guidelines for safe appliance disposal across Northern Arizona. Here's how we responsibly manage the appliances we collect:
Refrigerators & Freezers
Fridges and freezers often contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs)—harmful gases that can damage the ozone layer if released. We partner with licensed facilities that safely recover and recycle these refrigerants before scrapping the appliance for metal recycling.
- Freon safely extracted
- Compressor fluids drained
- Metal and plastic components recycled
Appliance Recycling
Most appliances are made up of recyclable materials like steel, aluminum, copper, and glass. We work with local recycling facilities to divert as much material from the landfill as possible.
- Scrap metal sorted and recycled
- Electronic parts properly handled or processed as e-waste

A Quick Note on Freon
Due to state and federal regulations, appliances with hazardous materials must be disposed of through approved channels. That’s why we charge a small Freon recovery surcharge for refrigerators, freezers, and AC units—but it’s worth it for peace of mind.We take all kinds of appliances

Talk to your local scrap metal recycler. Old appliances consist of many recyclable metal parts that scrap recyclers can use and recycle. If you can lift and transport your old appliances on your own, see what scrap metal recycling companies might take it.
Donate your appliance i it still works. If your appliance is still working, you can donate it to local charity, retirement homes or other charities.
