Recycle Your Cell Phone

or PDA, or pager or....

There are more than 500 million used cell phones in the U.S. sitting in people's drawers or worse, in our landfills, and another 130 million will be added this year alone!

The solution is easy, free and tax deductible -- and you already recycle newspapers, bottles and cans!

Just follow these simple steps:

  1. Fill out the form below.
  2. Print the mailing receipt (to put inside the package), and the postage paid mailing label (to apply outside the package).
  3. Put your cell phone, charger, and accessories into a box or padded envelope (Don't forget to ask your neighbors, co-workers and friends if they have any old cell phones -- send as many as you can collect).
  4. Give the package to your mail handler or drop off at the post office. Because you used the postage paid mailing label, shipping is free.

NOTE: The Recycle My Cell Phone campaign/EARTHWORKS recycles its phones through Collective Good. EARTHWORKS (or a RMCP partner, if you've arrived at this page by link from a RMCP partner's web site) receives approximately $1 per phone recycled. EARTHWORKS has partnered with Collective Good (as have many other nonprofits) in part because it is a signer of the Electronics Recycler's Pledge of True Stewardship. All funds received from Collective Good are used exclusively to promote cell phone recycling, to support voluntary recycling efforts and for public education.
