Got an old fridge or freezer at your business that needs to be replaced or retired?
  • PNM will give you a $30 rebate for each unit you recycle.

PNM is offering business electric customers a rebate for each working 10-27 cubic foot refrigerator or freezer they recycle.

How to get a rebate

  1. Schedule an appointment with JACO Environmental to pick up the old fridge or freezer. Pick up is free.

    Recycling more than two units? Please call JACO to schedule a pick up rather than going online.

  2. Your fridge will be hauled away to be recycled.
    • You'll be given a receipt.
  3. Get a check for $30 per unit.
    • Mailed to you 4 to 6 weeks after pick up.

Refrigerators eligible for a recycling rebate

  • Must be in working condition.
  • Typical kitchen-sized units
    • 10 to 27 cubic feet in size
    • Commercial units and dorm-sized refrigerators do not qualify.
  • All makes and models accepted.
  • Recycle as many units as you wish. There is no limit for business customers.

Did you know?

  • Older refrigerators are much less energy-efficient than new ones.
  • Refrigerators manufactured before 1995 often use up to three times as much electricity as a new one.
    • 1500 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, compared to about 500 kWh per year for a new one.
  • Remove an older, second fridge or freezer and don't replace it, and you could save about $175 per year on your electricity bill.
