How to Recycle your old Mobile Phones
Friday, June 26th, 2009
Mobile phones are almost a throw away item these days, with most of us upgrading our handsets every 12-18 months, if not sooner. If you’re like me, chances are you don’t want to let your old phone go, and hang on to it “just in case” you ever need a spare.
In reality though, your old handset that used to be your pride and joy is probably still sitting at the back of a drawer gathering dust and is never likely to make a call or send a text ever again. If you do ever dig it out, chances are you’ll go to do something on it that it can’t do and just throw it back in the drawer.
Well, here’s another thing you can do with it – Recycle it! Not only is recycling your handset better for the environment, but it can also be good on your pocket to, as you can actually get cash back when you send your old phone in for recycling.
Mobile phones should never be thrown in your normal household rubbish as the components in them take such a long time to break down, but knowing where to send them can be a bit tricky. For that reason, Mobile Fun are proud to announce that we have just launced a Mobile Phone Recycling Service. It’s completely free and is as easy as filling in a form and posting your phone to us – not only that, it pays you to do it!
To give you an idea on the money that you could get back, here’s a few examples of the cash back available on some of the popular phones that might be heading towards retirement.
