On average 130 million cell phones are retired annually in the U.S. alone
That is a statistic from Wireless Recycling, on why we need to recycle our old and unused cell phones. Cell phone waste is a growing problem, it is estimated that only 1% of old cell phones get recycled or reused, while the rest end up at our landfills or lay in closets, drawers, and household boxes.
With Wireless Recycling you can do a collection of sorts, and try to gather from friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, churchmates, classmates, etc 100 or more cell phones and they then can be shipped for free to Wireless Recycling. Or you can alternatively recycle (just the few you have) and drop them off at local donation center. (for free)
There are several resources available which enable you to recycle your old and unused cell phones. Try Wireless Recycling or google cell phone recycling to find another.
