Every year millions of cell phones are discarded and discarded improperly. At Flipswap they will give you cash for every phone you turn in. Not only will they recycle the phone and find a new home for it, but for every phone recycled they will plant a tree. Over 400,000 trees have been planted so far. This means over 200 tons of cell phones have been saved from being dumped into landfills.
Another option is donating your cell phone for someone in the military. Operation Gratitude sends care packages to U.S. troops overseas. GRC Wireless Recycling will contribute up to $30 to Operation Gratitude for every donated phone. Our military is deployed in hostile and remote locations - Operation Gratitude with their packages is lifting morale and bringing smiles to soldier's faces everyday.
Please pick one of these great organizations the next time you need to dispose of a cellular phone!
