We’re excited to announce the launch of our Scooter Recycling Program – a sustainable solution designed specifically for the Estonian market. After listening to our customers and recognizing that new electric scooters can be cost-prohibitive, we’ve created an affordable alternative that benefits both your wallet and the environment.
Why We Created the Recycling Program
The demand for electric scooters in Estonia continues to grow, but we’ve noticed a significant challenge: new scooters are often too expensive for many customers. At the same time, there’s been increasing interest in second-hand alternatives as people seek more budget-friendly options.
Our Recycling Program bridges this gap by offering a practical solution that makes electric mobility accessible to everyone.
How Our Scooter Recycling Program Works
The concept is simple and beneficial for all parties involved:
- Our client returns their scooter: Customers can return their used scooters to us and receive a partial refund or credit toward their next purchase
- Professional Refurbishment: Our expert technicians carefully inspect, repair, and restore each returned scooter to ensure safety and quality standards
- Affordable Resale: We sell these refurbished scooters at up to 50% less than new models, making electric scooters accessible to more people
Environmental Benefits and EU Sustainability Compliance
Our Recycling Program aligns with the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and supports key European sustainability directives, including:
- The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive, which promotes responsible recycling of electronic products
- The European Green Deal objectives for reducing waste and extending product lifecycles
- The Sustainable Product Initiative, encouraging repair and reuse over disposal
By refurbishing and reselling scooters instead of discarding them, we’re actively reducing electronic waste, conserving resources, and minimizing our carbon footprint.
Key Benefits of Choosing Recycled Scooters
- Cost Savings: Save up to 50% compared to buying new scooters
- Quality Assurance: Every recycled scooter undergoes rigorous testing and refurbishment
- Environmental Impact: Contribute to a circular economy and reduce e-waste
- Warranty Included: All refurbished scooters come with warranty coverage for peace of mind
- Supporting Sustainability: Be part of Estonia’s green mobility movement
