GreenCitizen is a socially and environmentally responsible company dedicated to helping consumers and businesses reduce their environmental footprint through proper management of their unwanted or obsolete electronics. GreenCitizen achieves this through a variety of IT services (including computer upgrade and iPhone repair), as well as closed-loop reuse and donation, all aimed at keeping electronics out of the waste stream. Finally, GreenCitizen offers convenient drop-off and responsible recycling locations for end-of-life electronics; a service that is fully accountable all the way through de-manufacturing.

GreenCitizen celebrates its 6th anniversary in 2011. Since opening its first center in Palo Alto on Earth Day 2005, GreenCitizen has successfully diverted an estimated 6.5 million pounds of harmful electronic waste from California landfills and dumping grounds overseas. Some 10,000 items collected have been responsibly reused in the U.S. GreenCitizen has grown to serve more than 110,000 consumers and 10,000 business customers.
