Mattel Buying Back Your Barbies And Other Toys To Recycle

Toymaker Mattel has launched a new toy takeback program called Mattel’s Playback, where it will recycle old Barbie, Matchbox cars and MEGA Bloks and turn them into new usable toys.

CEO of toy industry research firm Toys, Tots, Pets & More, Jim Siver, says Mattel’s move is a great idea:

“…as the consumer is becoming more and more concerned about the future and becoming more eco-friendly, manufacturers are starting to step up and start to try and make the environment better. So, I think it’s something that consumers are going to really like, and it’s very good for their (Mattel’s) image.”

To participate in the program, consumers can visit Mattel’s website, print a free shipping label, and pack and mail their outgrown Mattel toys back to the company.
