Compare and Recycle
Compare and Recycle works the other way round from most shopping sites: it helps UK owners sell old gadgets. Enter a phone, tablet, smartwatch or laptop, and it lists what different recycling companies will pay. Each result also shows how the firm pays and how customers rate it. It has been running since 2010 and is part of Atom Juice Limited.

About Compare and Recycle
How selling works
Three details start the process: make, model and condition. Compare and Recycle then lists prices from several recyclers side by side, with payment methods and customer ratings next to each. Pick one and you move to that company's website to finish. From there the recycler checks the device, pays you and handles the recycling itself. Because the prices arrive together, there is no need to visit each recycler separately.
Devices it covers
Most popular brands are included. iPhones, Samsung handsets and Google Pixel phones can all be priced, as can iPads and Android tablets. Smartwatches and laptops are covered too, so older kit in a drawer is worth checking alongside a recent phone.
Before you post anything
Compare and Recycle does not buy devices itself, so there is nothing to return to it. Questions about an order, a valuation or a payment go to the recycler you chose. Read that company's terms on how it assesses condition, since condition affects what you are paid. Recycling also cuts e-waste, keeps harmful materials out of landfill and lets valuable materials be recovered.
Sustainability at Compare and Recycle
Compare and Recycle plays a crucial role in promoting environmental sustainability by facilitating the responsible recycling of electronic devices. By connecting users with certified recyclers, they help reduce e-waste, minimise landfill burden, and encourage the reuse and recovery of valuable materials, contributing to a circular economy.
