Think Recycle is a sustainable fundraising program that rewards members with funds to recycle electronics.
It’s good for the environment and good for you!
Registered members get paid to collect and recycle small portable electronics like mobile phones, laptops, iPads and tablets. We’ve helped more than 300 members across Canada and the US recycle electronics and raise money. Our members include well-known institutions, companies, charities, clubs, schools and sports teams.

Our program is simple. We pay you based on the weight of end of life electronic items collected using these rates:
Cell phones – $2/lb
Laptops – $1/lb

Once we receive your collected items we weigh them and let you know how much money you’ve made. It’s as easy as that!
