Got over 200kg of refrigerant to hand over? Here's the smart way to plan it.

If your workshop is sitting on a large volume of recovered refrigerant, clearing it in one go makes solid commercial sense. Cool-Safe accepts bulk refrigerant returns, with a straightforward process to move heavy volumes off your floor and on to safe destruction.

How bulk returns work

When you return more than 200kg of a single refrigerant, handling stays the same but the rate you earn changes. Here's what you need to know:

Tiered incentives: Standard Refrigerant Buy-Back pays $40/kg + GST to your business for all eligible refrigerants, mixed or single, less than 200kgs.

If you have more than 200kg of a single refrigerant, Cool-Safe's Bulk Buy-Back rates apply. Get in touch for current per-kilo rates.

Dynamic pricing: Bulk Buy-Back rates move with carbon market pricing, so ask Cool-Safe for today's rate before booking your job.

Single-stream requirement: Bulk Buy-Back rates apply strictly to a single refrigerant stream over 200kgs, not a combined total of different refrigerants mixed across multiple tanks.

Booking your bulk recovery

Clearing bulk stock doesn't mean extra paperwork. The steps stay simple:

Consolidate your cylinders: Confirm your single refrigerant stream is over 200kg.

Cool-Safe can supply large recovery vessels at no charge for bulk recovery projects.

Arrange pickup: Call 0800 134 410 to book collection.

Leave the rest to Cool-Safe: We handle the logistics and payment.

Cool-Safe has operated since 1993, recovering up to 55–60 tonnes of synthetic refrigerant annually so it can be safely destroyed.

Do the right thing by the environment and your clients.
