Appliance Recycling Program
We’ll pick up your old refrigerator or freezer for FREE and give you $35!
While that old appliance in the basement or garage may provide additional storage, it’s not worth the additional cost on your electric bill. By recycling your old appliance, you can save up to $100 a year on your energy bill.
Limited Time Offer!
Call to schedule your pick up between May 1 and July 31, 2013, and you will automatically be entered to win a new ENERGY STAR stainless steel refrigerator! Call 1-877-341-2190 or click the orange button at the right to get started. See Sweepstakes Rules for more information.

Why Recycling Matters
- Each old refrigerator or freezer requires an average of 700 to 1,600 kilowatt-hours (kwh) to operate annually.
- If a spare refrigerator used in a basement or garage is removed and not replaced, energy savings can amount to 1,200 kWh/year, with an average $100 reduction in annual electricity charges.*
- With NIPSCO's Appliance Recycling Program, more than 95 percent of the appliance is destroyed and recycled, preventing it from entering a landfill.
*Actual energy and cost savings will vary by equipment model and region. These estimates are conservative and based on national averages (www.energystar.gov).
