The Insider Picks team writes about stuff we think you'll like. Business Insider has affiliate partnerships, so we get a share of the revenue from your purchase Most of us are willing to agree that recycling is important — be it the Patagonia jacket you outgrew or the plastic water bottle you bought at lunch. And while most of us mean to donate used clothes or finally find out the proper way to recycle batteries, far fewer of us actually get around to it in the end. It might help, then, that some companies even offer incentives like store credit, discounts, and cash back for getting rid of the things you’re no longer using.
