Drop them at your local Goodwill. They usually have a bin to accept old phones and chargers which are then redistributed to people who do not have phones, as cell phones that aren't subscribed to a service can ALWAYS dial 911.

If you're looking for something in your area, I would just call ur cell phone companies and ask them if they recycle. Some helpful websites are recyclewirelessphones.org, or if you're wanting to give to a specific charity, like the Breast Cancer Foundation, you can visit their website @ recycleforbreastcancer.org. And if you're wanting to recycle your phone for some cash, then go to SimplySellular.com/recycle. Hope this helps!!!

I know that the Carphone Warehouse will accept them for recycling - but they will also give you 'trade-in' money if you are buying anything from them at the same time.
The other option is that your service provider may accept it for recycling - I know when I bought my last phone direct from O2 they actuall sent me a free post bag to return my old phone/charger/manual to them for recycling

I think some of the mobile phone providers do this - I think it might be Orange or O2 - take a look at their websites. Some charities do it too.

sure they do. in view that a consumer will grow to be dormant and would not re-turn on the SIM after a particular era, the community operator can use the quantity on a clean SIM (kinda retains the series or that they'd have run out of numbers or would quickly be). so yeah, they can and they do.
