Yesterday was an exciting day for everyone at YouRenew as we launched our latest green endeavor. In honor of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, we have teamed up with WIRED to present the WIRED YouRenew.com Earth Day Challenge. Together we are challenging consumers to recycle 40,000 consumer electronics in one month between Earth Day, April 22 and May 21 on wired.yourenew.com.

We are thrilled to be teamed up with one of the leading voices in innovation and this challenge is the beginning of an ongoing partnership between WIRED and YouRenew.com.

Starting yesterday, Wired.com readers can find our widget on the WIRED homepage and receive estimates of what their used phones, digital cameras, laptops or old calculators are worth. The challenge website operates much like the YouRenew homepage, allowing users to search for devices and get paid in much the same way. Once we receive the devices, we will refurbish, resell or recycle the devices as part of our no-landfill policy.

If you’re like us and love both innovative new gadgets and the environment, check out wired.yourenew.com to get PAID for your used consumer electronics!
