Apple has broadened its program of recycling by adding a new option «reuse» (reuse) to owners of the iPhone, iPad, Mac or PC - desktop or laptop can get directly to the card Apple Gift Card the amount of the fair market value "handed in salvage" old equipment.
Apple continues to develop various programs of recycling : the head office kupertinovtsev since 2002 will accept any "unnecessary" electronics, retail stores, the company is free disposal of batteries, Mac, and it works WeRecycle! through the site www.werecycle.com, which also has the opportunity to take a computer or monitor any brand and get the new exchange.
Now owners of devices based on iOS, or any other manufacturer could get a loan in the amount of the fair market value of this device, designed by PowerOn - the third person in the Apple for recycling electronics.
Disposal of old products - a good solution, it involves the dismantling and removal of devices possible valuable components (made of metal, plastic, glass) for recycling and use in new products. But the recovery - even more "green" option, as it extends the service life of products useful in the secondary market.
"If your device is to be reused, which means that it has a monetary value, and you get a map of Apple Gift Card for an amount equal to its market value, estimated PowerON»
- Apple says on its new site created for the recycling program.
"You can use this gift card, carrying shopping at any retail or online - Shop Apple. If your product does not have any market value, we recycle it for free for you. "
The user can get on the network pre-assessment of his old unit, and then send it PowerOn without delivery costs. Then the company will contact the user to specify the value - perhaps it will differ from the figures pre-assessment, if the owner gave him the wrong device characteristics.
If the final amount may seem unsatisfactory to the user, the device will return to it again for free. If all the suits all, the PowerOn within three weeks after receiving promises devaysa user to return the agreed amount as a credit card at the Apple Gift Card. The company also promises a guaranteed erasing all the data owner before resale.
The principles of assessment PowerOn quite democratic - for example, the iPad the first generation can get $ 165. While there may be some buyers prefer to find themselves their old devaysov and get a better amount for their sale.
But the option proposed by Apple, it is quite suitable for the sale of old equipment with some injuries and malfunctions, and will get some compensation for investment in its new device.
