Freon issues with one yard has me going ''Huh?''

Maybe they figure a fridge with a full "tank" of freon is dangerous and something with just residue isn't ? I didn't know a dehumidifier had freon in it. Learn something new every day.

Dee, the compressors/pipes/wiring/fan (everything) had been removed from the fridges - it was just the shell.

Now, I bet if that same shell was removed from the plastic and folded it would go through no problem. It's stuff like this I see that leaves me amazed sometimes! Maybe its just the way it goes through the yard because I have dismantled microwaves and put the different metals through no problem yet they don't accept complete microwaves. Lol, see what I'm getting at?

Not that simple, the tag has to display the technicians number, he is subject a freon audits. It's a crazy law, how do you account for freon that leaked from a freezer.

I"m self taught in the repair of appliances and refrigeration when the freon law came into effect I could no longer purchase freon as an unlicensed technician, but there was nothing stopping me from reclaiming and using freon from discarded appliances.

From other factors that came into play, credit terms were becoming to easy for the home owner to purchase new rather than repair the old. The money was good while it lasted, there is nothing better that repairing a frost free fridge with a bum defrost timer for less that $20.00. If the fridge had a decent insides with canter leaver shelving and he color was green or white I would even take the time to sand and repaint it to the popular Almond.
