Surplus Consumer Items Find Good Homes Through Re-launched Recycle.co.uk Site

    SURREY, ENGLAND, May 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A website dedicated to helping reduce landfill usage in the UK by putting unwanted consumer goods into the hands of people who need them has re-launched its service this week. Recycle.co.uk now offers people the chance to find good homes for surplus items and also the opportunity to generate cash from old mobile phones.

Recycle.co.uk helps UK consumers to find a good home for unwanted items and recycle them to someone who can find a use for them. The site promotes all manner of consumer goods from DVD players to iPods, and the site has a mission of reducing how much landfill in the UK is filled up with consumer kit.

Site users are able to advertise for free on the site, making recycling unwanted goods as easy as can be. The re-launched site offers people the chance to include a contact phone number on their item advert as well as the chance to set up email alerts to tell when specific items have been added to the site.

The newly re-launched recycle.co.uk service also offers users better search functionality in the shape of post code searches, so tracking down items closer to home is now simpler. The website also offers a mobile phone recycling service to allow people to get money for old and unwanted phones.

Gareth Robinson, spokesperson for Recycle.co.uk, says, "We've had a really good first year of operating and helped many people to put items to great use. Making money off old phones is just another reason to sign up to our service and get recycling unwanted items."
