About us

Story

Two young businesspeople from the Trois-Rivières region launched Uni-Recycle in 2016 with a lot of desire but limited resources, a dream, and a mission. Growing from a small “Start-Up” to a significant participant in electronics recycling with over 40 people, Uni-Recycle has profited over the years. Uni-Recycle’s efforts and expanding experience have allowed it to earn a number of certifications relevant to its industry, attesting to the dependability and excellence of its offerings. As it changes, the business never wavers from its core principles and keeps innovating with the ever-present goal of improving the community and the environment. Specifically, through a variety of local, sustainable, and circular economy projects that prioritize material reuse above recovery from.

Les moments marquants

Earth Day 2018

Uni-Recycle participated at the Earth Day celebration in an activity called plogging. Plogging means to collect waste and trash on the ground while slowly jogging.

For us, it was important to recognize the participances for the contribution by donating gift to them. All good actions should be rewarded, something that Uni-Recycle feels strongly about.

Tree Day 2018

Uni-Recycle also participated in Tree Day in collaboration with the city of Trois-Rivières. With the lead of the city, over 2000 trees that was distributed on that day.

On that day, 15 mature trees were planted on our offices property and 200 small trees were given randomly to people who wanted them.

Sale for profit of Leucan 2019

In August 2019, Uni-Recycle organised a huge clearance sale with the profit going to Leucan. All the electronics, computers and small appliances with some imperfections were sold during the event.

The event had a double positive impact, it allowed us to sell some materials that would have been recycled because of their imperfections. This allowed us to give 5150$ to Leucan just with the profit of sale.

Opening our work platform

In September 2021, Uni-Recycle has open its own work platform on the company’s premises in collaboration with the CIUSSS MCQ. The platform can accommodate 60 users per week with autism spectrum disorders or disabilities. The goal of the project is to promote the community integration of people with disabilities by providing them with an opportunity to develop their skills and abilities through work.

Depuis février 2022, Uni-Recycle possède 3 certifications internationales ISO agissant à titre de normes de qualité (ISO 9001), de santé sécurité (ISO 45001) et de management environnemental (ISO 140001).

In July 2017, Mikee et Philippe had to hire a new employee to help support the growth of the business. A few months later, they had to add new members to their team in order to meet the demands that were much bigger than before. The services being free, simple and without any restriction had been major factors in the expansion of Uni-Recycle.

    We want to thank you for thinking about but unfortunately, we can’t make domestics pickups.

    We are considering a solution to that problem. Talk about us to your co-workers from the IT department. Suggest a combined collection of the old electronics at the office and also the ones that every employee has at home. You would just have to take everything with you the day of the pickup and we could even pick it up from your car trunk.
