Starting A Mobile Phone Recycling Business

If you are thinking about starting a home based business and have considered recycling

as one of your options, you should look into recycling old mobile phones. Mobile phone recycling is more profitable than any other type of recycling. Here are a few other reasons that you should consider recycling mobile phones for your home based business.

Currently there are an unlimited number of phones available. On average Americans change phones every year, to year and a half. That leads to over 100 million discarded phones every year. Currently, less than 30% of these phones are disposed of properly. Most American households have phones gathering dust in a drawer someplace. Most people have never thought, "I should sell my mobile, or can I sell my phone?" This means that that are literally billions of phones out there waiting for a business savvy person to come along and offer a way to get rid of them.

Phones do not require much room to store and most of the transactions will be done online. When recycling phones you will be able to set up drop off spots around your community. This can be at places such as a library or a social event such as a basketball game. Make sure to advertise your drop off locations so you receive as many phones as possible. You may want to partner with a charitable organization. This will mean sharing your profits with them, but you will still be able to make some money.

In order to sell your mobile phones you will need to find a buyer's website to use. These sites will require a bit of information about the phones. Some companies have programs that will allow you to ship the phones in bulk. The great part is that you will not even have to pay for shipping as the company will either send you a box to ship it in or have you print a prepaid shipping label. Once the company gets the phones and checks the phones condition the will send you cash for phones.

Mobile phone recycling is a much needed service. With most phones currently being discarded in improper fashion there is a serious threat to our environment. The chemicals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury can leak from discarded phones in landfills and contaminate water systems and soil. Not to mention the room that is being taken up in landfills unnecessarily.

With a little bit of research and effort it is simple to start a mobile phone recycling business. This type of business is not only great for your pocket book, but also will benefit your community as well. This is a great way to start a green business, earn some money, and help out your community in the process.
