1-800-Recycling.com, an interactive nationwide company dedicated to simplifying and enhancing the consumer recycling experience, has announced that its iPhone App, “My Recycle List,” became the #1 top rated recycling App at Apple’s App store a mere 22 days after its release.
“My Recycle List” is a user-friendly App for iPhone or iPad designed to help anyone anywhere participate in the recycling of items they would otherwise throw away. The first fully comprehensive “all items, all zip codes” recycling App, 1-800-Recycling’s free App, available at the Apple App store, enables the user to quickly find recycling locations nearby that accept items the user selects from a list. The App enables the user to easily organize locations by adding them to a personalized list – like an intuitive grocery list for recyclers.
Like 1-800-Recycling’s website and phone system, the “My Recycle List App” is designed to take the burden out of recycling by making it easy to accomplish recycling goals in the least amount of trips.
“We are extremely proud of the tremendous success of our ‘My Recycling List’ App,” said John Shegerian, Chairman and CEO of Electronic Recyclers International (ERI), the nation’s leading recycler of electronics and e-waste, and parent company of 1-800-Recycling.com. “That we’ve been so readily embraced by the population at large shows just how desperately people wanted and needed a simplification of the recycling process. Our App, like our 1-800-Recycling.com site and 1-800-Recycling interactive phone system, enables anyone anywhere to be an active part of the recycling process – whether at home or at work.”
1-800-Recycling.com provides users with nationwide outreach to help users find recycling locations nearest to them (every zip code in the country is covered) for whatever it is they wish to recycle.
The new App, the 1-800-Recycling.com website and the 1-800-Recycling phone service all direct users to responsible recyclers of electronics, tires, oil, paint, glass, plastic, wood, mattresses, carpet, junk – basically everything that can be recycled.
