Maximizing device lifecycles and minimizing waste

Solutions for Measuring and Optimizing Your Sustainability Goals

We know our customers care about the environment, as do we. That’s why we embed sustainability into our products and services. Extending the lifecycle of devices and properly recycling them when they’re no longer usable is critical in reducing carbon emissions and diverting e-waste in our landfills.

Device Returns, Support, and Protection Programs
Our Trade-in, Upgrade, Service & Repair, and Protection programs are inherently designed to extend the useful life of devices. These benefit not only the environment, but also your customers. Consumers are holding on to their devices for longer and want peace of mind that if something happens to their device, it’ll be quickly repaired or replaced. And, when they’re ready for a new one, they can receive money back through trade-in and be satisfied to know their old device will either go on to a new user or be responsibly recycled.
