Did You Get A New Cell Phone for Christmas???

Every Christmas, there are thousands of commercials for people to give or get a new cell phone for the holidays. This year the iPhone seems to be the biggest hit, as well as the different android phones. While this is good and all, it should be noted that this means that the individual has an extra phone that he or she has to get rid of.

Cell phones should not be thrown away as they can be very detrimental to the environment and leak toxic wastes into the soil. However, there are many different recycling methods that can ensure the phone is properly disposed of or that it is used by those who are less fortunate than one’s self.

Those with children often find that they have very little difficulty in finding a place to send the old cell phone. Pre-teen and teenage kids often look forward to receiving a newer phone, and the giving them the older phone helps to cut the costs of providing them with phone service, while also ensuring that one knows the number.

There are also non-profit community centers and programs that take old cell phones and either turn them into recycling programs for cash or they put time on the phones, turning them into pay as you go phones, and handing them out to those who are less fortunate.  To preserve the safety of the individual who is donating the phone, the contact information is erased and the number is changed.

Another great idea is to sell or recycle the cell phone at a cash for phone site. This allows an individual to receive a monetary amount for the phone based on the model and it helps the environment. One of best ways to recycle mobile phones is to send it into a company such as Cash for Phones. This way you can even get some extra money for your new phone bills while doing something good with your old phone.
