Abstract

The work aims to guide the consumers to participate in the recycling on their own by building an express cabinet with packaging recycling function, and investigate and study consumers' intention to independently participate in express packaging recycling and the feasibility of this kind of recycling method. Based on the investigation of current situation of express package recycling in Foshan, the pains and difficulties of express package recycling were analyzed. The intelligent express cabinet was added with the function of express package recycling on the basis of the existing express cabinet. UTAUT model was applied to analyze consumers' willingness of recycling express packages with intelligent express cabinets, and the data of investigation results were subject to regression analysis. The research results showed that, the construction of the intelligent express cabinet could promote the consumers' intention to independently participate in the recycling of express packages. Consumers agreed that the recycling function of the express cabinet could provide an effective way of recycling. The recycling efficiency of express packages could be improved by splitting the express at the time of receiving the express. The age of consumers had a significant effect on the use of intelligent express cabinet. Others with different ages and jobs could be influenced by performance expectation, effort expectation, social influence and facilitating conditions. As is highly feasible, the intelligent express cabinet with packaging recycling function can greatly improve the recycling efficiency of express packages, save resources and protect the environment; however, the implementation of such express cabinet still needs the support of relevant policies and the cooperation of multiple de-partments.
