Earth911 Offers Green Tech Opportunities to Android, Sprint

 Earth911, an environmental services company that operates North America’s most complete directory of local recycling and proper disposal options, has launched a free iRecycle application for Android (News - Alert). iRecycle's Recycling Search enables users to find and easily locate recycling opportunities for hundreds of products.

Based on Earth911's mantra that recycling is one of the easiest and most accessible ways to get people plugged into sustainability, the iRecycle app provides access to more than 800,000 recycling and disposal resources for more than 240 materials. Also streaming the latest articles covering the trends and ideas in product stewardship and recycling that matter most, iRecycle offers search capabilities using current location, ZIP code, address or city.

With the help of this unique app a user can access a recycling listing’s vital details such as website, phone number, directions, hours of operation, and other materials collected in order to streamline the process. In addition, users can use an iRecycle Android Widget that brings fresh content right to a device's home screen.

iRecycle can make it easier to find recycling locations anywhere in the US, including places to drop-off  old cell phones or water bottle. iRecycle also now hosts information on local green events in an area and the latest stories and features on their website, Earth911.com.

“The iRecycle app provides a great resource for customers who are looking for up-to-date information about recycling and sustainability,” said Ralph Reid, vice president of corporate responsibility for Sprint (News - Alert), the company which has deployed this app in its new Sprint Green ID. “We are delighted to include this app in Sprint’s Green ID pack and happy that all Android users can access and use it.”
