What do you do with a old mobile when you buy a new?

give it to your kids to take apart and play with

Answer 2

you can recycle an old phone, or donate it to a charity--if it's in good shape still. There are many groups that take old phones and refurbish them for use by people who really need them--abuse victims, transplant waiting list patients, parents of very ill children, disaster victims, etc. Take your phone back to the place you bought it and find out if they have a recycling program--if not, try Radio Shack--I know they do!

i go though Verizon for my cellphone plan, and the last time i upgraded to a new phone I was actually able to donate my old phone to the US soldiers fighting overseas so they had a phone to call home with.
