Portable devices.

Every year, there is a new upgrade or the next best version of your devices.

Sitting around the house are obsolete tablets, e-readers, phones, laptops, music players, and GPSs that just don't get used anymore.

These devices can still be used by others or broken down to be recycled over and over again. Don't just let your Walkman collect dust!

Why use Ridwell?

Some devices can be reused while others are taken apart to be recycled into new things.

Please return your devices to factory settings if possible, but if you're not able to not then don't worry! Our partners will securely wipe the information from every single device we give them.
