Change Things by Cell Phone Recycling

You might not be aware that by throwing away your cell phone just like how you normally dispose your garbage, you are actually contributing to water pollution. Bear in mind that cell phone parts can contain toxic materials such as lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic that are harmful to the environment if not properly discarded. Nowadays, multiple brands and models of cell phones started to breed like mushrooms. It is no wonder why some people often change cell phones to cope with the increasing trend of stylish and smart phones.

Due to this seemingly relentless need to produce technologically advanced cell phones, it is necessary to also consider cell phone recycling. Not only are you going to aid in attaining a greener environment, you will also have the opportunity to help other people. Old yet well-functioning cell phones can be donated to senior citizens and women’s shelters. For employed citizens, it is easy to buy a cell phone. But for some who have limited income, receiving a refurbished one is a great help. Also, it would give them access to emergency services.

Another way of cell phone recycling is donating your old cell phones to organizations that provide assistance to U.S soldiers. For every old cell phone they collected, they will earn $30 for that. You can do this by casing it in a package and remember to put a free mailing label.

Cell phone recycling can also help you earn and save money. You can exchange your old cell phone for a new one through an upgrade. You might have to shell out some cash but you have to admit, you basically saved a few bucks for a better one. Finally, if you already own a lot of cell phones, forget the upgrade and go straight to selling it. There are organizations that buy old cell phones for a better price.
