NASHVILLE, TN, September 27, 2023 - Pyxera Global, FedEx and TERRA are collaborating to find out whether mail-in collections for consumers can work at scale to generate a meaningful quantity of used devices.

A pilot program run by FedEx and circular economy advocate Pyxera Global recently selected The Electronics Reuse and Recycling Alliance’s (TERRA) established “Done with IT” mail-in recycling program to provide collection services. Pyxera and FedEx have worked on several reverse logistics projects together.

Under the pilot, residents of the continental U.S. can receive a free FedEx shipping label via the Done with IT website to send in their used devices. The test will run until mid-December or until 2,000 devices have been recovered, with FedEx subsidizing the cost for the duration.
