Do you have more than one mobile phone in your home? Perhaps you are like many other mobile phone users and you do not want to lose pictures you have taken with one phone, so you have held on to it and now you have more than three mobile phones taking up dust bunny spots in your drawers. If this sounds like you, never fear, you can eliminate this problem quickly and make a bit of profit.

First, if you do not have a device handy go into your local mobile phone store and ask them to transfer all data on your phone into the new phone. This will certainly work if you have an older model, but you can also use USB cords for mobile phones, memory cards for your phone, and other options to download your pictures directly onto your computer. Once you have everything downloaded to the computer, dump all data. Make certain that you totally reset your mobile phone so that none of your data will remain stored.

At this point, you are ready to recycle mobile phones for a bit of profit. The profit is a secondary nicety with your current dust bunny collectors. Depending on the model of phone, you could earn anything up to £200 for your mobile phone through the recycling process. The amount you make is also dependent on the condition of the phone. The better condition the better the funds for recycling.
