Mobile phones are the most popular household electronic and electrical device in the United Kingdom. On the contrary, mobile phones are not like our normal, general household waste which can be binned. Mobile phone recycling is a way to guarantee that our used, old or unwanted mobiles end their useful lives in the proper manner. In line with the Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipments (WEEE) directive mobile should be recycled and not disposed like general household waste.


It is understandable that some people do not understand fully the benefits of mobile recycling. Usually it is because they either do not know the benefits to the environment and/or that if they could sell mobile phones and get cash for phone. The benefit of not discriminately disposing of used mobiles is huge and generally prevents serious damage to the environment. An even more direct benefit to the owner of an old phone is that mobile recycling puts cash in their wallets. There is therefore cash in your mobile which mobile recycling and not binning can help unlock.


Millions of mobile phone contracts are ...
... upgraded annually and people naturally want to get rid of their old mobile. Binning however would not be a good way and neither would keeping it in a drawer be. If you bin your old mobile device it risks ending in a landfill or waterways where toxic chemicals in mobiles can infiltrate the artery of our environment. On the other hand, tucking them away in a drawer only ensures that the residual value in them is lost overtime.


Few years ago there were just a handful of companies that offered mobile phone recycling solutions. These days however, there are more than 30 of them in the United Kingdom alone. This obviously means that the customer is presented with greater choice and more competitive pricing when they sell mobile phones as these companies are constantly trying to outsmart each other in the game of competitive pricing.


The process involved to sell your mobiles is also simple and usually online or on the internet. Most mobile recycling companies own websites that are interactive and complete with the prices they would offer for your mobile. All you needed to do was search for your used mobile on their website and place your order as long as you are happy with the price being offered. It sure pays to recycle your old mobile devices instead of binning or tucking away in a drawer. Start selling today and get cash for mobile.
