It's awesome that this article talked about appliance recycling. We have some old appliances at home and we cannot purchase new stuff because they're occupying a lot of space. There's no extra room which we can temporarily use as a storage, so we really need to recycle them.

You made a good point when you shared that it is important not to simply throw your appliance in the garbage bin. My mother just mentioned the other day that she wants to get rid of the AC unit that is no longer working well for years. I will suggest to her looking for a reliable place where she can recycle it.
