Why recycle?

Because a refrigeration appliance generates on average one ton of GHG!

If an appliance is not recycled properly, then the gases and hazardous materials it contains are not disposed of correctly… and subsequently released into the environment.

Halocarbons are greenhouse gases with substantial environmental impact that contribute to climate change.

GoRecycle is the only organization recognized by RECYC-QUÉBEC to manage the recycling of these appliances.
