Refrigerant Consolidation

<p>It’s easy! After you get set up (access the onboarding documents <a data-router-slot="disabled" href="/us/resources/new-account-onboarding/" title="New Account Onboarding">here</a>), you contact us and let us know when you have refrigerant ready for pickup. If you need replacement loaned cylinders, please let us know how many you’ll need and what sizes.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="Paragraph SCXW7074281 BCX0" style="text-align: left;">Once the paperwork is complete, our drivers or third-party logistics partners will show up and take your full cylinders, and drop off replacements, if applicable.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="Paragraph SCXW7074281 BCX0" style="text-align: left;">We then bring the gas back to our reclamation facility in Rhome, Texas. At that point, we test it and weigh it, and then you’ll get issued payment via ACH or check—your pick.</p><p>Once it is ready for reclamation, we re-process the used refrigerant and bring it back to AHRI-700 standards for re-entry into the market. The helps to ensure the future supply of refrigerants.&nbsp;</p>

<p>There isn’t a contract <em>unless you rent our cylinders. </em>We loan out large 125-pound, 240-pound, and 1000-pound cylinders for a one-time deposit. For that, we require a signature and acceptance of our terms and conditions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Nope! There are no disposal fees. However, there are related costs for specific items: cylinder loans (we loan out large 125-pound, 240-pound, and 1000-pound cylinders for a one-time deposit) and shipping <em>if minimum weight requirements are not met.</em>&nbsp;</p>

<p>We do not sell tanks. But with our program, you don’t need to purchase tanks. We loan out large 125-pound, 240-pound, and 1000-pound cylinders for a one-time deposit for participation in this program. However, we do not sell the cylinders on their own.</p>

<p>Depending on the refrigerant and purity, we offer payment via ACH or physical check.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Payments are made 30-45 days after we receive the tanks. We offer payment via ACH or check.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p class="Paragraph SCXW131961427 BCX0" style="text-align: left;">Contact your local representative for current market pricing. Prices vary based on gas type and volume.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>200 pounds is our usual minimum, and anything below 200 pounds may incur shipping charges. However, please <a data-router-slot="disabled" href="/us/contact-us/" title="Contact Us">contact your A-Gas representative</a> to discuss your options.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>We cover shipping if you meet the minimum weight requirements.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="Paragraph SCXW265154910 BCX0" style="text-align: left;">Cylinders returned to A-Gas need to be packed in a way to ensure they are stable throughout the transit and unloading process, meet DOT requirements, and enable safe unpacking. <br>&nbsp;<br>Cages are the most preferred option, but pallets are also acceptable. &nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>For shipping 30- and/or 50-pound cylinders, </strong>cylinders should be locked and banded without any gaps, with stretch wrap applied around the whole pallet/cage.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="Paragraph SCXW265154910 BCX0" style="text-align: left;"><strong>For shipping 125-pound cylinders, you can ship in a cage or pallet</strong>. For cages, cylinders should be vertical, with cages filled to prevent cylinders from tipping over. For pallets, cylinders can be horizontal, with banding around the body (no cap), with stretch wrap. <strong>All metal caps should be installed </strong>and minimize overhang on the cylinder vale end. Wood spacers (also known as “roll guards” and “raggle sticks” should be installed between layers, with banding on the body.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="Paragraph SCXW265154910 BCX0" style="text-align: left;"><strong>For shipping 240-pound cylinders</strong>, always ship upright and double band to the pallet, especially when shipping 4 or more cylinders.&nbsp;</p>
