Title: Apple now takes your old Apple Watch for free recycling Post by: HCK on December 05, 2016, 04:05:14 pm Apple now takes your old Apple Watch for free recycling
<article> <section class="page"> <p> After upgrading to the Apple Watch Series 2, people now have another option for what to do with their old smartwatches.</p><p> This week, Apple added the Apple Watch (https://9to5mac.com/2016/11/30/apple-watch-trade-in-recycle-renew-gift-card-credit/) to the Apple Renew program (http://www.apple.com/recycling/), which aims to get people to send their old devices to be recycled properly free of charge. But Apple is not offering store credit or a gift card in exchange for sending in an old Watch.</p><p> Typically, customers who trade in iPhones, iPads, and Macs via Apple Renew receive a credit for the Apple Store. For example, recycling an iPhone 6s Plus with 128GB can get you a $300 gift card, and sending in a working MacBook is valued at about $450 in Apple Store credit. It seems that the Apple Watch trade-ins, like the iPod, don’t receive anything in return—well, except for the peace of mind that you’re helping out the environment.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3145654/wearables/apple-now-takes-your-old-apple-watch-for-free-recycling.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Apple now takes your old Apple Watch for free recycling (http://www.macworld.com/article/3145654/wearables/apple-now-takes-your-old-apple-watch-for-free-recycling.html#tk.rss_all) |
