Manufacturer Private Collection/Takeback/Recovery Program or Plan
|
Yes
The manufacturer has two options in the registration process. The first option is that the manufacturer implements a takeback program for their products that is completely free to the customer, including shipping, which allows the manufacturer to pay a lower registration fee. Manufacturers are required to provide a toll free number and website address detailing program information on their takeback process. The second option is that the manufacturer does not implement a takeback program and pays a higher registration fee.
