Cash for Your Old Fridge

January 26, 2011

That spare fridge or freezer hiding in your garage – the one stocked with sodas and expired frozen dinners – is taking up a lot more than space. Older, inefficient models use up to four times the energy of newer models, gulping more than $100 worth of additional electricity per year. If you’re a Puget Sound Energy residential electric customer, PSE will pick up and recycle your secondary fridge or freezer for FREE and give you a $30 “thank you” check. Start saving energy and money today by pulling the plug on that energy moocher! To schedule your free pickup, visit PSE.com/Fridge or call 1-866-551-9755.

P.S. So how can you find the right appliance at the right place, and make sure it’s available NOW? Milo.com to the rescue. Milo.com tracks the real-time availability of more than 2 million products – including the qualified ENERGY STAR appliances – and points you to the local stores carrying them in stock. Save yourself from driving store-to-store to track down the right washing machine. And since you can buy it now, you’ll have enough time to apply for the rebate. taa daa
