Get $50 for Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer from Xcel Energy

With the Xcel Energy Refrigerator Recycling Program you can get $50 for your old refrigerator or freezer…and they’ll pick it up from your home!

Getting a new refrigerator can save you money in the long run! Refrigerators 15 years or older use twice as much energy as new ENERGY STAR® refrigerators, which means you could save $50 per year or more on your electricity bill by replacing an old refrigerator with a new ENERGY STAR model.

Those savings are even better when Xcel Energy gives you $50 for your old fridge!!

Got an old, but still functioning fridge or freezer to get rid of? The Xcel Energy Refrigerator Recycling Program will give you $50 rebate for it! This program was on a temporary hiatus, but now it’s back.

To participate in the program, you must:

• Be an Xcel Energy residential electric customer living in Minnesota
• Have an account number
• Own an operational* 10-30 cubic foot refrigerator/freezer to be picked up from the address listed on your account

*Operational is defined as being capable of cooling/freezing.

Schedule an in-home or no-contact pickup appointment. They are both free. If you would prefer that they do not come into your home, the no-contact appointment allows them to safely collect and recycle your appliance from your garage, driveway, or porch.

You’ll need to plug in your fridge or freezer the night before the pickup date to show that it is operational. (For in-home pickup only.)

Xcel will pick up your refrigerator or freezer and recycle it for free. Within four weeks after pickup, you’ll receive a $50 rebate check in the mail.
