REDUCE, REUSE, REBOX

It's time to rethink the way we consume tech.

Great tech shouldn’t cost us the Earth.

We set up reboxed with one thing in mind – to fight e-waste the worlds fastest growing waste stream, It’s our entire reason for being. We want to change not just the way people buy and sell tech, but their whole mindset.

We know we can’t do that alone. And we don’t pretend to have all the answers. We want to collaborate with other like-minded partners to create positive, meaningful change.

Our circular business model – rehome, rebox, repeat – isn’t just designed to give our members better value, but make a positive impact on the environment and society.

And above all, we want to be a force for a good in the world.

From the joy of unboxing. To the joy of reboxing.

Consumer electronics is one of the world’s most polluting industries. That’s because it’s a linear system: buy it, bin it, buy it, bin it. It’s a throwaway approach that encourages and rewards people to upgrade long before they actually need to – and little to no incentives to re-sell.

Millions of mobiles end up going to waste every year -– lying unloved in drawers long before their time, before eventually ending up in landfill. And every single one of those devices has taken precious earthly materials to create, at great cost to the environment and local communities. One iPhone X will create 79kg of CO2 in its lifetime, roughly the same as burning 9 gallons of petrol. 80% of those emissions happen before it’s even left the factory.

Committed to doing better.

We're a registered to B-Corp (a ‘Better Corporation’); an alliance of companies that believe businesses should be a force for good.

We see the environment as a stakeholder here, and how we treat it is just as important as our bottom line. Being a B Corp encourages us to take a step back and see how we can build circularity into every part of our business.

Making an impact, inside and out of the box.

Unfortunately, we don’t actually make what we sell. But we hold our partners (and ourselves) to the highest social standards and have our own in-house checklists to make sure we’re always making socially responsible decisions.

We’re developing our social responsibility program right now and look forward to announcing some key commitments to the local community and our workforce very soon. Watch this space.
