"Pull the Plug" Recycling Program - refrigerator, freezer or window air conditioner - $25/unit
If you have an old operating regrigerator, freezer or window air conditioner that you would like to get rid of, fill out the form and Iowa Lakes will contact ESI, our recycling contractor, to set up a collection time.
Within one business day, ESI will contact you, the member-owner, to confirm the request and provide an estimated collection time - within a three-week time frame.
The appliance must be located "curbside" for collection, meaning it has to be outside of the house or inside a garage or shed. ESI will not enter a member-owners's home to remove the old appliance.
During appliance pick-up, ESI checks to make sure the appliance is operable, loads it up, writes a $25 rebate check and leaves it with the member-owner in an envelope provided by Iowa Lakes Electric Cooperative.
Maximum of three units per residential/farm account per year. A member-owner may have ESI remove other appliances at the member-owner's own expense.
