Recycling Your Cell Phone

We use them everyday, and its hard to imagine life without the ever precious cell phone, but did you know that its also very important to turn them back in?

By now, there are probably around 5 billion cells that are circling the earth, and as you can imagine - that's a lot of waste. So why not recycle your old phone that you no longer need?

Recycling a cell phone is easy, and you will feel confident that you made the right decision, because cellular phones are made from toxic metals.

By breaking them down into their bare elements, and starting from fresh, you will save on the need for further mining.

If you choose to just throw yours away, you may be astonished to learn that they can leak really bad stuff into landfills, and despite the effort to raise the awareness on the issue, not even 2% are recycled every year.

How can you do this?

Its really quite simple. The first thing that will happen is you will be given a form to fill out. This will include only the most essential details such as name and mailing address.

Then you will be given the mailing form and a pre-paid postal label to print.

Then gather up your cell and all accessories. If you have more than one mobile phone, don't hesitate to mail as many as you like. Remember - its free.

Package all the contents nice and tight and apply the label and don't forget to include the form in the package.

Head down to your local post office, mail it and your done. If you need a service to use to do this, Recycle My Cell Phone.org is an excellent choice.

However, did you also know that there is a way for you to make money recycling cell phones? There are actually companies that want to pay you top dollar for your phones, even if they aren't fully functional. The more accessories, unscathed and well working the phone is - the better, but even so you can still make decent money for junk cell phones.

Some people have been known to even turn this into a full blown business, generating impressive amounts of cashflow every year, with not as much effort as you might think, and having fun doing it at the same time.
