Bring your old cell phone to DemoCamp tonight for recycling
When: Monday November 25th from 6:30pm – 9:00pm
Where: TwelvEighty pub at McMaster University
Also, Stephanie McLarty CEO of Hamilton-based REfficient will be in attendance tonight, and if you would like to participate in their Phone4Trees program you will be able to give her your old phone at the event. Check out the details of the program below:
Have old cell phones or tablets to recycle?
Want to do something good for the environment?
Want to show your company is environmentally responsible —
and have the data to back it up?
Give a phone, plant a tree
Hand in your company’s and employees’ old cell phones, smartphones and tablets to REfficient for recycling and repurposing.
REfficient coordinates trees to be planted for phones and tablets handed in. We work in partnership with Trees Ontario and other tree planting organizations across Canada.
And not just that — you can plant your own tree! Bring your employees, their families and other stakeholders to the Community Tree Planting Day in May 2014. Stay tuned for details.
There is absolutely no cost to participate in the program.
How The Phones4Trees Program Works
Delete the data on the phones. Guides on how to do this are found online here. Please note REfficient is not responsible for any data left on phones.
Collect your phones, cables, power supplies, etc all together.
Contact us at phones4trees@REfficient.com or 905-544-5000 x5001 and we’ll arrange for pick up of the phones. There is free shipping for 5 or more phones collected. Alternatively, drop off your phone at or send it to 605 James Street North, 2nd floor, Hamilton ON L8L 1J9.
Receive a complimentary Go Green report — a report that gives you sustainability data from the recycling program that you can then use for website purposes, social media, CSR reporting, etc.
Stay tuned for more information on the Community Tree Planting Day in May 2014, so that you and your employees can have a fun-filled day planting trees.
