If you don’t have recyclables ready, we still ask you to post the choice: “I don't have recyclables right now but am willing to save them to give away, please contact me”. By choosing this, prospective ecycler collectors will see your posting and contact you via the site to pick up the recyclables. This way, you can continue to recycle the way you currently do and possibly switch to an ecycler collector when one contacts you. </p> http://forums.ecycler.com/topic/ideas-for-getting-started-as-collector#post-17 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 01:07:49 +0000 craig 17@http://forums.ecycler.com/ <p>ecycler has two users, Collectors and Discarders.

You can direct them to your ecycler profile and point out your positive feedback that you may have received through numerous ecycler transactions to indicate that you are a reliable collector. In many areas single family residential homes have single-stream recycling (aka the city provided recycling bins). In these areas you may have more success approaching condos and businesses and arrange with the manager to collect the recyclables from the building. </p> http://forums.ecycler.com/topic/marketing-ideas#post-15 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:02:30 +0000 recycle 15@http://forums.ecycler.com/ <p>Howdy,</p> <p>Use this area to discuss what works and what doesn't work in terms of marketing yourself as a collector.</p> <p>In addition, there are several tools available to you on your <a href="http://ecycler.com/cdb.php" title="ecycler Collector Dashboard">ecycler dashboard</a>.
