Sam’s Club Bows Online Recycling Program
-- TWICE, 4/30/2008 8:43:00 AM
The new service allows Sam’s Club Members to trade in their older electronics for a gift card, the value of which is determined by a recycle trade-in value generated through www.econewonline.com/samsclub.
The EcoNEW program accepts LCD monitors, digital cameras, desktop and laptop PCs, gaming systems, MP3 players, camcorders and printers. According to a release, even if a product does not qualify for a trade-in value, the program will still accept it for recycling and will provide a prepaid shipping label.
Sam’s Club and NEW guarantee the products will not be exported or placed in a landfill, but rather reconditioned, recycled or sold into the secondary or used marketplace in whole form or broken up into useable parts.
