Air Conditioner Disposal and Recycling New York
Disposal of Old Air Conditioners / PTAC Units / HVAC Units in NYC NY
New York, Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Long Island
The day an air conditioner stops working the way it should is the day you realize that they’re very tricky to get rid of. First, they are too heavy to carry, second, too dirty to put in the trunk of your car, and third, because air conditioners are so heavy and dirty, they are potentially dangerous to handle.
Add to this that AC units contain freon and other refrigerants regulated by the U.S. federal government under the Clean Air Act and you realize why you rather want to use professional junk removal services to help you say goodbye to these bulky appliances while enjoying the great relief of eco-friendly recycling and donation options.
If you have an old air conditioner sitting around or plan on replacing your equipment soon, make an appointment with PTAC Air Conditioning Services in NYC for the fast and safe disposal of your old air conditioner. We’ll provide a free estimate and our insured, trained junk removal professionals will pick it up and make sure it’s disposed of safely and responsibly.
Why Remove an Old Air Conditioner?
Air conditioners tend to wear out slowly — until they break down very suddenly. If your A/C has seen better days, you might need to replace it as soon as possible:
- Energy bills tend to increase toward the end of an air conditioner’s lifecycle.
- Repairs costs may skyrocket if you wait too long to replace.
- Old window and wall units may create a health hazard due to mold and germs.
- Upgrading to central air can increase your home’s value
Can They Be Recycled or Reused?
The parts of an air conditioner can be recycled if taken to a specialty recycling facility. In some cases, the air conditioner can be donated, such as window units that are not very old. The big issue is whether the unit is clean and functioning well.
Of course, you can’t just throw an air conditioner in the regular recycling bin. It must be dropped off at a donation center that accepts them, or taken to recycling. Junk removal can save you countless hours of phone calls and driving around trying to find a recycling option.
