Give customers a way to return that does not end in a landfill.
Redo adds a Recycle return type to your portal so customers can ship eligible items to Redo for responsible recycling instead of throwing them away. Brands configure minimum item quantities and choose who covers the label cost.

How the Recycle return type works

A dedicated Recycle return type

Redo adds a Recycle option to your return portal as a distinct return type, separate from standard returns or exchanges. Customers actively choose to send items for recycling.

Configurable minimum item requirements

Merchants set the minimum number of items required to open a recycling request. This prevents low-volume submissions that do not justify the label cost and lets you manage inbound volume.

Two funding models for label costs

Merchants choose whether Redo covers the return label cost, funded through slightly increased coverage pricing, or whether the merchant covers the label. Both options are configurable per merchant.

Built for sustainability-minded brands

Numbered recycling requests

Each recycling submission receives a numbered request ID (RECYCLE-1001, RECYCLE-1002, etc.) so merchants can track and manage recycling volume separately from standard returns.

Builds a sustainability story with customers

Offering a recycling option gives eco-conscious customers a reason to buy from you and a responsible way to return items they no longer want, rather than throwing them away.

No landfill. Responsible processing.

Items submitted for recycling are shipped to Redo and processed responsibly. The program is positioned for brands that want to make sustainability a visible part of their post-purchase experience.

Have questions?

Can I set a minimum number of items required for a recycling request?
Yes. Merchants configure a minimum item threshold before a customer can open a recycling request. This prevents low-volume submissions and helps manage the inbound volume of recycling returns.
Who pays for the return label on a recycling request?
Merchants choose. Redo can cover the label cost, funded through a slight increase in coverage pricing. Alternatively, the merchant pays the label cost directly. Both models are configurable.
What is the Recycle return type and how is it different from a standard return?
The Recycle return type is a distinct option in the Redo portal where customers ship eligible items to Redo for responsible recycling rather than returning them for a refund or exchange. It is configured separately from your standard return policy.
