I would take in to the shop for an estimate on repairs. At the service department for the major retailer I worked for there was an estimate fee but they would also junk it out for that if the estimate was refused.
There is a fee these days to dispose of any refrigeration unit because they have to recover the refrigerant and drain the oil from the compressor before they can be tossed.
Good Luck
