old cell phoneWondering what to do with your old cell phone?   Don’t throw it away!  Many of the chemicals used inside cell phones are hazardous.  They contain lead, cadmium, arsenic, and zinc.  So what do you do with a drawer full of discarded cell phones? Sell them!

That’s right!  There are also good things in cellphones:  glass, plastic, and gold.  Yes, gold!  It doesn’t amount to much, but gold is used in the circuit boards because of its excellent conductivity.

Many communities are proactive on this topic and hold recycling days where they will take your old cells. This will generally happen a couple times a year. 

However, if you are in the mood for cash, try looking at this website. They also host a catalogue where you can look up much your cell phone is worth.
