Mobile Phone Recycling Helps The Earth!
Every single year, more and more people are replacing their home phones with mobile phones. But, with replacing our old land line phones with mobile phones we are noticing two things. The first thing, is that technology is ever changing. I had my land line phone for about 3 years. It rocked. It had everything I needed. I never needed to replace it because it had everything that would do what I needed it to do. The second thing I noticed was that mobile phones DO change technology and quite often! Within a years time I ended up switching my mobile phones 4 times. FOUR TIMES! This was simply because I felt that the newer phones had better features than mine.
Even the “G”s were getting upgraded. The one phone I had started with had wireless technology, but it wasn’t any kind of a “G”. The second phone I had was a 3g connection. The third one I bought was a 3g connection plus it had a hot spot and a wireless and a bluetooth option. The fourth one I bought (recently) has the 4G option. You know how crazy this stuff is sometimes. It can drive you nuts. I just saw some kind of a commercial recently, I think it was for Best Buy.
I just walked into the room, so I didn’t know it was a spoof or anything. But, it was the one where someone is talking about 5g. I was like, wait did not 4g JUST come out. Thankfully it was a joke and they were just talking about some buy back program they had for televisions and electronics! Anyway, electronics, especially mobile phones, are insane. They change every single week, one company trying to outdo the competition.
We, as consumers, of course benefit from this. But, because of all these updates, upgrades and changes, a lot of us are stuck with 4 phones – like in my case. Most companies won’t buy back cell phones. But, there is another option you can try – mobile phone recycling. A little note about mobile phone recycling from our friends at EPA.GOV: “Recycling cell phones helps the environment by saving energy and keeping usable materials out of landfills.
Cell phones and PDAs are made of precious metals, copper, and plastics-all of which require energy to mine and manufacture. Recycling conserves these materials so they can be turned into new products”. The nice thing about mobile phone recycling is that A) It gives you a venue to sell your mobile. Hell, I even sell MY mobile with these companies and websites! But, 2), it also allows you to sell your mobile for cash.
Yes, you actually can get cash for phones. If I sell my phone at a comparison or mobile phone recycling I can expect that I won’t make ALL my money back that I spent on the phone. But, I can expect that if I sell my phone on a mobile phone recycling site, that I will make quite a bit back. For example, If I bought an iPhone for $300, I could probably get $100 back for iPhone recycling depending on the model and year of the iPhone recycling phone. It also depends on the site you go to. The mobile phone recycling site I visit actually has a comparison engine on their website.
Think of something like MySimon. You go to the phone recycling site, you pick out the phone you have, you choose the place you want to sell mobile phone, you go to the site, you sell mobile and you get cash for phones. Sell your phone. Make money. It’s really THAT simple and that easy to do!
