Recycle, Reuse used cell phones!

Batteries and other parts of used cell phones contain chemicals, metals, and toxins that cause harm to environment when thrown away, and may soon come to post a public health risk due to the volume of used cell phones thrown away, according to an article by Wired.

To prevent components from used cell phones such as arsenic and lead from being released into the environment (children are the most at risk), be sure to send your used cell phones in to be recycled. CellularTrendz.com has a recycling program for used cell phones, just obtain a mailing form here.

To complete the circle of recycling, consider used cell phones the next time you want a cell phone upgrade. Avoid contracts, fees, and high prices when you buy used cell phones, while contributing to stopping used cell phone waste from entering our environments and our homes.

And if your cell phone is broken? Before you give up on it, see if it can be repaired.
