This law requires manufacturers to recycle at a certain level or higher for five items : air conditioners, televisions (including cathode ray tubes), refrigerators (including freezers), washing machines, and clothes dryers .
With the enforcement of this law, home appliance retailers will pick up the five items that have been sold in the past or are no longer needed when replacing them, and home appliance manufacturers will recycle them. Consumers will be responsible for the cost of recycling, etc.
