Revivn
At Revivn we recycle and purchase your old electronics. Our process involves valuing your electronics and buying them back from you. We then find a place to either reuse or recycle your products, which is good for the environment and good for you. This is how we started…
A year ago, a residential building in the East Village was being completely renovated. Mountains of trash were being removed from outside the building. We were walking by and realized how many monitors, keyboards, and other used electronics were stacked up along the sidewalk. It got us wondering, what if the building wasn’t residential and was a commercial building? Then how many used electronics would be on the curb and where would they all end up? We couldn’t stop thinking about all the old electronics companies have lying around in NYC – so many people, so many companies, and so much outdated electronic equipment cluttering desk drawers and storage rooms.
We decided to start a recycling service by offering to purchase companies obsolete wireless electronic devices. The platform was built to relieve organizations of the responsibility of disposing used electronics themselves, help improve the environment, and create a socially responsible niche. As we continue to grow, we will constantly be evaluating the scope of our business, changing the way we think about sustainability and learning more about how companies view recycling.
