Spotlight: Lower energy bills, no heavy lifting required

Did you know your old fridges and freezers could be costing an additional $15 per month on your electricity bills? Upgrading to more energy efficient appliances is a great way to reclaim these costs, but what do you do with the old fridge or freezer you’re replacing?

Luckily, Efficiency Nova Scotia provides a free service for retiring these old appliances, and they’ll pay you for them. Forget the hassle of disposing of them yourself or selling on Kijiji. All it takes is a simple phone call, and Efficiency Nova Scotia will do all the heavy lifting—they’ll pick up your old fridge or freezer, and give you $30 while you sit back and relax.

Homeowner Bill Camp recently retired his old fridge, which he remembered fondly, “….it was salmon (colour) inside and it still ran.” He was pleased with how effortless it was when the Efficiency Nova Scotia team arrived to retrieve his fridge, “…they took it up out of my basement. I was happy!”

The only criteria needed to take part in this hassle-free service is that the old fridge or freezer must be working, full sized, and at least 10 years old.

Together with its partners, Efficiency Nova Scotia helps save Nova Scotians an astonishing $165 million in annual energy savings—Nova Scotians like Bill Camp who know first-hand how easy it is to take part. “I would highly recommend them. They were so accommodating!” If you have an old fridge or freezer to retire, let Efficiency Nova Scotia do the heavy lifting, and enjoy the good things efficiency brings.
