You don’t know what to do with the books you don’t read anymore?

You would like to buy books online without necessarily going though Amazon and still keep a responsible approach?

Recyclivre tought of a two-in-one solution for both these great concerns. With their electric van, the eco-citizen company offers both individuals and professionals in France and Spain (Madrid) a free book collection service. A new destiny then opens up to them via the online sales platform of Recyclivre.

More than a second-hand bookseller 2.0, Recyclivre is an exemplary company with a triple societal requirement:

Ecological: by fighting against waste and by reducing as much as possible and offsetting all their CO2 emissions.

Solidary: by donating 10% of their net income directly to associations and programs to combat illiteracy and promote access to culture and preservation of resources worldwide.

Inclusive: by entrusting the management of stocks and shipping of books to people in situations of great exclusion.

At Les Grandes Idées, we salute the initiative!
