How Many Phones Do You Need?
The average UK mobile phone user replaces their mobile phone every 18
months, usually keeping the old handset as an unnecessary spare or
throwing it away.
You can help give your old phone a new life or at the very least
recycle its parts by simply returning the phone in one of our freepost
envelopes. We have recently extended this service to include PDAs.
What Phones and PDAs Can We Collect?
We collect all brands of digital mobile phones and PDAs, the newer the
phone or PDA the more funds we are able to raise. Handsets don't even
have to work, although more funds can be raised for charity if they
do.
Please remove all sim cards before returning your phones, and please
note that we can not accept chargers for recycling.
How To Return Your Phones
The easiest way to send phones and PDAs to us is by using our
freepost bags. These can be obtained
via the menu item at the top, or by calling 0845 3 100 200.
If you have more than 20 phones let us know as it may be easier for
you to just box the phones and we'll send along our courier firm to
collect.

What Happens To The Phones?
Where possible we sell the phones and PDAs to be directly re-used. We
have a number of outlets including our own Ebay shop. A proportion of
the proceeds from each sale raises funds for charity.
Phones which need parts replacing or are beyond economic repair are
sold to a company who either replace the faulty parts or break the
phone down into their component parts which are then re-used or
recycled.
