6 Reasons Why Businesses Should Consider Recycling Unused Mobile Phones

Due to heavy usage and the need for up-to-date technology, many businesses end up with a pool of unused mobile phones. However, whenever you finally decide to upgrade, make a sensible and responsible decision by choosing to recycle your older stuff first!

Every electronic device that you dump inevitably ends up at a landfill or in the oceans. Loaded with a considerable amount of deadly elements such as lead, mercury, and arsenic - reckless disposal of these articles can have serious repercussions to not only the environment but our very own health.

At Everything Mobile Ltd, we fathom this grave concern and offer services of mobile phone recycling for safe and secure disposal. 

We also offer special WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) recycling solutions specifically for the ‘end of life mobile devices’.

Here is why businesses should consider recycling unrequired gadgets responsibly:
  • The Process Is Seamless And Less Tedious
There are no complex procedures involved and the whole process is pretty simple to initiate. Here are a few options that you have:
  1. E-cycler: Handing over your device to a certified e-cycler will not only ensure the destruction of your device data but will also take care of its safe and secure disposal.
  2. Take-Back Programs: Some of the manufacturers also run ‘take-back’ programs where you can submit your old device, once you decide to upgrade to a new one. 
  3. Local Municipalities: Local MC bodies of certain places also collect hazardous waste. Get in touch with your native units to know more.
  • Not Recycling Can Be Dangerous
Not opting to recycle your devices can be far more dangerous than what you can actually think of. The composition of most electronic gadgets includes hazardous chemical like arsenic, lead, and mercury. If not disposed of properly, they can end up in water bodies and landfills, thus, substantially multiplying the danger. This waste also sometimes shipped to such countries, who do not have the necessary means to dispose of it securely. Hence, it's your responsibility that your old gadgets reach the right place for safe and secure disposal.
  • Means To Destroy The Data Securely 
The hard fact is - simple formatting of the device is not enough to erase every trace of data on it. Reputable e-waste disposal companies have the ways and means to destroy the sensitive information once and for all. 
  • They Can Be Reused 
Some of the devices dumped are very much in working condition. After necessary refurbishment, these can be routed to the market of reusable goods. 
  • Unmanageable Waste 
As per the findings of the UN, we produced close to 56 million metric tons of waste in the year 2016 alone. Don’t be a part of the problem! Recycle your e-waste sensibly!
  • Saves Energy And Environment
Your electronic gadgets are comprised of precious elements. The supply of these is already limited and hence, constantly requires mining. 

Mining process puts a lot of pressure on our dwindling resources apart from giving an unprecedented rise to pollution. The consequence is green-house gas emissions and damaged environment. 

Why waste so much energy and resources when you can actually recover most of the elements during the recycling process that you can put to use later on.
