Our Impact

BuyBackWorld values and stands behind an environmentally conscious policy which the senior management team has put in place in order to not only meet, but exceed industry expectations in terms of overall quality standards concerning environmental preservation and addressing the ever growing e-waste crisis.

When electronic devices are not reusable, we promise to work with only ISO14001 accredited and e-Stewards® certified Secure Processing Facilities to ensure recycling is performed in the most environmentally friendly manner.
