Wireless: The New Recyclable
Your wireless phone can be recycled. Recycling your wireless phone
reduces the amount of waste disposed in landfills and allows recycled
materials to be incorporated into new products.
The Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) and its
members encourage consumers to recycle their phones and have taken
steps to promote the collection and environmentally sound recycling of
end-of-life wireless devices.
As a wireless phone user, you have an important role in ensuring that this
phone is recycled properly. When it comes time to give this phone up or
trade it in for a new one, please remember that the phone, the charger,
and many of its accessories can be recycled. It's easy. To learn more
about CTIA's Recycling Program for Used Wireless Devices in the United
States, including information on where to recycle wireless devices near
