Mobile Phones Less Than Four Years Old Are Worth Money
Mobile phones that are less than four years old can be sold online to companies that specialise in recycling and refurbishing them. Even damaged mobile phones can be recycled and turned into cash. Companies like Mazuma, Environfone and Environ will buy your old mobile phones from you.
It is very simple to use their websites; all you have to do is to enter the make and model of the phone you wish to sell and you will be given a price. If this is acceptable to you, just fill in your details and you will be sent a padded envelope in which to send your phone. Most mobile phones that are under four years old will be listed on these sites, but if yours is not you may still be able to sell it if you contact the customer services section on the site.
Keeping outdated mobile phones in cupboards and drawers actually loses you money. Many people will not sell their phones because they do not think they are being paid enough for them and so they leave them where they are and end up with a totally worthless phone, literally throwing money away. The point here is that if you have old phones, you will get a better price if you sell them right away.
You can still send very old phones for recycling so that they do not end up in landfill sites and this helps reduce the carbon footprint of your phone, but you will not be paid for them.
