Are There Any Other Appliance Rebates?

Consumers Energy takes their Appliance Rebate Program a step further. You can receive additional money if you choose to upgrade your appliances. Search the appliance list to find a compatible Energy Star option. Once you've made the upgrade to a more efficient machine, you can apply for a rebate.

You will need to show:

  1. Your account number
  2. A digital copy of your sales receipt
  3. The appliance's model number, manufacturer and retailer name, or retailer SKU

These rebates provide anywhere between $25 and $75, depending on the appliance type. A heat pump clothes dryer, Wi-Fi enabled thermostat, 60-inch or bigger television, and pool pump earn you the most.

  1. You can only recycle 2 large appliances per year, and up to 4 small appliances.
  2. You must be 18 or older, or have someone of this age present, during pick up.
  3. You or a designated person need to sign an agreement indicating you are releasing the appliance to Consumers.
