Welcome to Fair Trade Recycling

Fair Trade Recycling is an association which brings together exporters and importers of used goods and recycling services.

The association has worldwide membership, and is based in Vermont, USA. The members strive to create fair, open, and environmentally sustainable trade regimes, especially for reuse, repair and recycling of used electronics.

Members believe that neither extreme - abuse of poor trading partners (forced to accept "toxics along for the ride"), nor boycotts and prohibitions of the "geeks of color" overseas, represents a solution to the challenges of "e-waste" and other international trade.

We offer a Recycling Pledge to Importers and Exporters Alike, and we offer tools for members to demonstrate their best practices. Our association is represented in R2 Stakeholder groups, in University Sustainability Programs, and has been a consultant to EPA and International Organizations seeking to improve the Recycling trade.
