Circular Disposal Increases the Value of Products More Than Linear Disposal
Across four experiments, consumers ascribe more value to products they expected to dispose through circular means (i.e., recycling, donating, reselling) vs. linear (i.e., trashing). An increase in pride in disposal and a decrease in guilt in spending when making a circular disposal decision underlie the difference in product valuation.
