Cell for Cash: recycle and monetize your old phone !
In our web wanderings we came across this very innovative outfit ! Cell for Cash is a 'virtual exchange' that allows cell phone users to recycle their old handset for a nominal amount of money.
For example: I entered my old phone's model, a battered Nokia 6820, and was offered $57 ! Some Pdas are compensated all the way in the $100 neighborhood ...
The need for this type of service is accentuated by the fact that multiple standards characterize the US wireless landscape, making it impossible for you to use, say, a T-Mobile handset, on a Verizon plan as this is a transition from GSM to CDMA technology.
In addition to monetizing that lonely and idle old phone, you are helping a variety of good causes as Cell For Cash associates with the Special Olympics (donates a portion of your phone's value). Also, you are recycling old cell phones that would otherwise end in landfills and pollute the environment ...This is how you do it:
Trade Your Old Cell Phone for Cash in 3 Easy Steps:
1. Find your phone in the list of phones Cell For Cash accepts.
2. Submit your information.
3. Send in your phone in the return postage box Cell For Cash sends to you.
