Apple has just updated their already existing products recycle plans for iPhone and iPad.
You can now return your used iPhone or iPad to Apple and get some money back for the product. The value is evaluated based on the damages and other factors. And surprisingly, this recycle program now takes even PCs for recycling.
This program from Apple is helped by a company called PowerON. This company helps in valuating the products that can be dumped in the Cupertino’s campus. The world’s most valued company has been running this program since 2002.
Apple and PowerON are also offering a gift card for your reusable product. According to Apple,
[quote] “If your product qualifies for reuse — meaning it has monetary value — you’ll receive an Apple Gift Card equivalent to its fair market value as determined by PowerON. You can use the gift card for eligible purchases at any U.S. Apple Retail Store or the U.S. Apple Online Store. If your product does not have monetary value, we’ll recycle it at no cost to you.” [/quote]However, if you feel that you aren’t happy about the value that Apple gives for your devices, you can get your product back with Free Shipping.
All you need to do is just go to the Apple’s Recycle program page and enter the appropriate details, to get the estimation, and ship it to Apple.
