Earn Loads of Cash from Mobile Phone Recycling

Ever considered the benefits of mobile phone recycling? Many people still have there old mobile phones packed away, eventhough they haven’t used them in many years. Everyday, more people either buy new phones or upgrade them for better, more advanced versions. The problem is their old mobiles. What could they do to prevent hoarding these old phones that they’re never likely to use again.

Thankfully, there is a solution; many companies that specialise in mobile phone recycling have recently sprouted up online who will even pay you cash for your old phone. Who wouldn’t rather have some extra cash than a box full of old mobile phones?

The Need to Recycle your Old Mobile Phone

There are plenty of good reasons, besides cash, to think about when you consider mobile phone recycling. The increase in mobile phone sales has skyrocketed, with literally billions of new handsets sold within the last 10 years or so.

As people get new mobile phones, their old ones are either stored away or tossed out. Imagine how many old phones are either stored away in homes across the UK or even worse occupying public landfills. None of these options are any good, especially knowing that you can now earn cash from your old mobiles.

The Best Place to Sell your Old Mobile Phone

A mobile phone recycler will offer you more for your phone if it is newer and still working properly. More often than not, mobile phone recycling companies will resell your old phone to people in other, less developed, countries or recycle their parts for spares.

You may  think it a good idea to sell your old phone yourself and earn more money. Whilst this option looks very good, you must realise that there is no guarantee that it will sell.

What Company to use to Recycle

If you look around, you’ll notice many online mobile recycling sites that will pay you for your old mobile phones. Whilst most online recyclers will pay you for your old mobile phone, some present you with a vouceher option for a partner company or sometimes even the option of both. The offer you search for should be based upon your needs.

If you need something from one of the voucher offerings then a site that will pay you in vouchers might be best for you, especially as voucher values are usually higher than cash. Alternatively, if you have no need for vouchers then search for the recycler that will pay you the most for your old mobile.

How to Recycle my Old Mobile Phone

As soon as you have found the best offer for your old mobile phone you will be asked to fill out a form; providing the recycler with some information about the phone as well as yourself. Shortly you will receive a free jiffy bag which you will need to put your phone in and send back to them. Unless you pay for ‘sign for’ delivery, your phone will not be insured and the recycler will therefore not be responsible should anything happen to it during transit.

After a short while, you should receive your payment. When they receive your phone it best be in the condition you reported online, otherwise they may make you a lower offer for it. It is also important that you remove all pin or security passwords and ensure that you send them your phone fully charged and switched off.

Mobile phone recycling is a good way to get something back from your old mobile, especially if you have a few of them. By recycling your old phones you will have more space and some extra money as well!
