Mobile phones can be sold or donated to give them a new lease of life, helping poorer people in the developing world. Those that can't be re-used or re-furbished in this way are recycled according to EU Standards. By recycling, you give new life to old technology and keep those toxic e-waste materials from causing harm to our environment. Many of the companies listed in our directory also use some of the proceeds to support charities and sustainable causes.
Help the environment and poorer people, while earning money for your old mobile! “Globalization, as defined by rich people like us, is a very nice thing... you are talking about the Internet, you are talking about cell phones, you are talking about computers. This doesn't affect two-thirds of the people of the world.” – Jimmy Carter

Once they have done the trade envirofone sends them a welcome pack that includes a freepost envelope. Once the phone is received they are tested and if they meet the terms and conditions users are paid cash.
