WeRecycle! Featured on Sundance Channel's Eco Trip

June 9th, 2009 - We are pleased to announce that WeRecycle! was featured on the Sundance Channel's new show, Eco Trip, hosted by David de Rothschild. The program focused on the environmental impact of the one billion new cellphones that are put into use each year, and the subsequent e-waste problems it creates. Eco Trip was referred to WeRecycle! by the Basel Action Network (BAN), which described the company as one of the largest responsible electronics recyclers in the Northeast.

WeRecycle! General Manager Dave Smith led the program on a tour of WeRecycle!'s New York metropolitan area facility. Interviewed on the program, he said: "We're proud to do our part. We're doing the recycling, the separation and making sure that it's handled responsibly."
