Second Hand Goods
GreenMetropolis.com
GreenMetropolis.com is a company dedicated to encouraging people to recycle their books for the benefit of the environment, by enabling them to buy and sell. By recycling used books and buying secondhand, not only are you saving existing trees, you’re actually helping plant new ones, as we donate 5p from every sale to the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity the Woodland Trust, to support Woodland Creation.
Green Home Electronics
We buy and sell quality used hi-fi equipment. Our aim is to reduce landfill by repairing, refurbishing and putting back to use quality used equipment, all our items come with a 28 day warranty.
Green Policies
Every month the average local authority has to dispose of tons of used hi-fi equipment. Most of this equipment ends up in landfill or being chopped up and the materials being recovered - it’s recycling but energy intensive so hardly a truly green solution. Often times equipment is thrown away when there is nothing wrong with it - maybe the owner has bought an upgrade, the colour no longer matches or maybe a new feature is required. Sometimes the equipment is faulty and traditional repairers require too much money to effect a fix, labour is often the determining factor.
What we at Green Home Electronics do is to put that equipment back to use. In all that we do we try to be as friendly to the environment as we can, even the buiding we work from is a wooden structure built from a resource of managed timber.
Green home electronics exists to deliver value to our customers, the environment and the community in which we live and work.
