Apple starts recycling program for unwanted cellphones




Worth Reading?

YesNo


Bored of your iPhone?  Don’t drop it in the nearest landfill, or leave it out on the porch for the seagulls to eat; Apple will now take it – and in fact any unwanted cellphone you have lying around – and recycle it.  It’s an extension of the existing iPod recycling scheme, and just as with that you simply print out a label, wrap up your unwanted tech and drop the whole bundle into the nearest post box.

Alternatively, Apple will send you custom packaging in 7-10 days if you register on their site; you can also take the old handset into an Apple store, but remember that fashionable people might see the crappy old phone you used to have and judge you.
