Recycle A Phone, Look after The Environment And Your Pocket!

Recycling is all the rage at the moment in the UK. We are being told that we are drowning beneath a mountain of babies’ nappies, that plastic bags are covering the land we walk across and there will be heaps of crushed glass bottles everywhere we go before long.

And it is right, we need to do something around the situation. We cannot go on just purchasing and dumping ceaselessly. For a start, we will run out of huge holes in the land into which we can dump our expired waste and secondly, we will soon have used up all of the critical oil supplies and other vital fundamentals that are used to make these products.

The problem is, the situation is getting poorer. No longer do we all routinely put that last piece of string into our pockets to keep just in case it was required as our grand parents did. Instead, it is not worth the effort.

Worse still, the price of digital wares is lessening rapidly and as everyone keeps saying, they are not made as well as they were 20 years ago (or so I am told!!!).

These days even a TV can be bought for next to zero so when it breaks down, it is more affordable to head out to the shops, or just open your web browsers, and acquire a new one. The endeavor of finding someone to fix it and then perhaps paying half of the price of a new one is not worth it.

Yesterday, my dad told me he had been quoted £250 by a big name computer shop just to open up his notebook and see if the power supply was working. If it required any fixes, that price would be on top of that. Given I had myself just bought a cheap netbook for £240, the fix was far more than the machine was worth.

These digital devices which have the built in batteries are by far the worst. These batteries can be full of elements such as mercury that can poison the ground and do need recycling.

And that is why there are blogs springing up that deal with the problem of finding places where the general public can sell old phone phones. There are lots of them appearing, for a good reason.

The problem with the phone is that it contains many resources, some tremendously valuable. Plus, lots of people replace them every year, maybe even having more than just the one handset. So it is a shame that when a replacement mobile is purchased most people will just throw the old one in the bin.

Instead, go to a cost comparison site. Yes,they really do exist! Type in the make and model of your phone and they will show you the best paying directories on the web that can recycle your old mobile for you. Then, not only are you doing your bit for the environment, but you are also earning yourself a small amount in the process.

Feel good for being environmentally friendly and get some extra cash. What could be better?
