Yes for water lines (shut off the valve, disconnect the supply, cap if needed). For gas, we shut off the valve and disconnect — if the connection looks corroded or unsafe, we stop and recommend a licensed plumber. Safety first.

It's reclaimed by an EPA Section 608-certified technician at our recycling partner. California and federal law both require this — it's not something you can legally skip by dumping a fridge at the curb.
