Proper Disposal of Your

Refrigerator/Freezer

 

Risk 

of 

child 

entrapment.

Child 

entrapment 

and 

suffocation 

are

not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned 

refrigerators 

or 

freezers 

are

still 

dangerous 

— 

even 

if 

they 

will 

sit 

for

"just 

few 

days." 

If 

you 

are 

getting 

rid 

of

your 

old 

refrigerator 

or 

freezer, 

please

follow 

instructions 

below 

to 

help 

prevent

accidents.
BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR
OLD REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER:

•

Remove
doors.

•

Leave
shelves 

in

place, 

so

children
may not
easily 

climb

inside.
