Fridge Buyback

Fridge Buyback is a residential energy savings program that actually pays you to help save the environment and reduce your power bills by giving up your old second fridge.

Old fridges are one of the biggest energy users in the home, consuming up to three times the energy of new fridges. Running your second fridge adds an average of $265 a year to your power bills and puts one tonne of greenhouse gas into the environment.

Fridge Buyback provides regular collection runs to selected areas of Metropolitan Sydney, The Illawarra, The Shoalhaven, The Central Coast, Newcastle, Maitland, Lake Macquarie and The Blue Mountains. To participate in the program, your fridge must be a working second fridge that has been in regular use, is 250 litres or more in size (8.83 cubic feet) and at least 10 years old.

Fridge Buyback provides residents with free collections by professional removalists and a $35 rebate* if the removal of the fridge involves 6 steps or less. The fridge is collected for free if there are between 7 or 20 steps but no rebate is available. A fee will apply only if the property has more than 20 steps. The fridges collected are professionally degassed and the metals recycled.

Fridge Buyback is supported by the NSW Government's Climate Change Fund and local Councils. The program has already collected over 29,000 fridges, reducing NSW's greenhouse gas emissions by over 29,000 tonnes per year. Opportunities to expand Fridge Buyback to NSW regional towns are being explored.
