In some developing countries there is no fixed line telecommunication system so people rely on mobile phones as their sole means of communication and access to the internet. By recycling your phone not only is this helping the environment by keeping it out of landfill, it is also helping others by helping supply the global demand for pre-owned phones, which in turn also helps the environment because it means less new phones have to be manufactured.Īs well as getting resold domestically in the US, recycled cell phones are also exported internationally to other countries where there is a big demand for pre-owned phones such as China, South America, India and Africa.

This has created a huge global demand for used phones. As the prices of the latest phones continues to go up and up there are many consumers worldwide that choose to buy a Pre-owned or Refurbished Phone instead of a new one. When you recycle your phone through a proper cell phone recycling company over 95% of phones are refurbished and resold on to new owners. Recycling Helps Make the Price of Technology Accessible to Everyone
