If you’re thinking about putting your old refrigerator in storage you need to consider the law. The Consumer Product Safety Act was signed into law way back in 1972. That’s how far back the concern goes towards protecting children from getting accidentally trapped inside. The moment you unplug the fridge and deem it to be “unusable” you are taking on the responsibility for securing that appliance. You’re options are limited. You can either remove the door or securely lock that door with an external lock. Even if that fridge is tucked away in your garage or down in your basement and even if there are no kids living in your home, you still have to take those extra precautions. That’s the law.
Getting rid of a big appliance like a refrigerator is no small undertaking. That’s why many of the old ice boxes end up shoved out onto a porch or in a shed out back.

Recently there was a huge explosion over at the Nexeo Solutions chemical plant in Garland. The sky filled with acrid smoke and flames. That gave everyone of the local residents a pretty decent scare. Luckily, the Garland Fire Department was quick to respond and beat back the flames. Because of the nature of this plant, the EPA was summoned tom make sure there was no lingering danger to the air quality. It was deemed safe. The day after the explosion, the clean-up began. As the work crews came into the sight, the fire department was standing by with their hoses at the ready in case any hot embers would flare up and start a new fire. That didn’t happen but it was still a slow and potentially dangerous operation to clear out the debris. This is something that had to be handled by professionals.
