Apple’s expanded its Reuse and Recycle programme to include iPads.
Now if you have an iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4 and iPad mini can walk into an Apple Store, and receive credit towards a new iOS device. However, Apple will not accept current-generation devices like the iPad Air or iPad mini with Retina display.
As with the iPhone programme, Apple will assess the condition of devices before providing a trade-in value. However, don’t expect a huge return if your iPad has seen better days or is in relative good condition. This is more about convenience.
