How Bike share volunteers Recycle Dead e-scooters Through the PassCell Marketplace

Bike share volunteers accumulate dead e-scooters that cannot go in household trash. PassCell connects everyday collectors with certified recyclers who bid on Lane B — no broker, no opaque scrap quote.

Why the public marketplace matters

Before PassCell, bike share volunteers with dead e-scooters called a scrap hauler and hoped for fair pricing. The Circular Material Exchange publishes listings to certified recyclers who compete with bids — turning anonymous waste into transparent feedstock.
