User Rating:Even though people are “greener” than ever, the amount of recycling done is nowhere near what it could be. This is because many people just don’t know where to bring batteries, ink cartridges, and energy efficient light bulbs to be processed. The iRecycle app can guide anyone to the appropriate facilities in their area.
The app has more than one hundred thousand locations capable of recycling over two hundred different materials in its database. The user can perform a search based strictly on their geographic location, or they can use the keypad to type in the exact item they need to recycle. The auto-fill feature recognizes the most commonly recycled items and descriptions to make it even easier.
The search can then generate a detailed list of locations that can recycle the item and the user needs to just tap the listing to get detailed directions and complete information about the site. For instance, they can dial the location from the app, visit any related websites, get turn by turn directions, and see a complete list of all materials taken at the site. The app also indicates the specific recycling instructions and statistics for every material as well.
There are other lifestyle and reference apps for those interested in greener living, and iRecycle is a remarkably powerful tool to add to any collection of earth-friendly apps. It functions with iPod Touch and iPhone devices.
There is no fee for the download of the iRecycle app.
If you want to get rid of all of the batteries, old cell phones, plastic bags and tons of cans that have been sitting around your home, this app can help you get the job done in the best way possible.
