So what happens to your telephones when they are recycled after you sell your mobile phones for cash? Some will be shipped to countries such as Africa and the Middle East where hand sets that may be considered out of date in the UK and still in demand. Others, usually the more dated mobiles, will be sent to a mobile phone recycle company where components such as silver, gold, copper, platinum, palladium and other precious metals will be removed. Toxic metals such as lead, zinc, arsenic, manganese, mercury and nickel will be safely removed.

This 2010 research was produced by recycling experts Redeem who estimated that Britain is missing out on more than £390 million of potential income from recycling unused electronic equipment with mobile phones topping the list. This equates to almost £160 million worth of recycling payments. The research by Redeem found that those with the largest amount of unused mobile phones that could have been recycled were aged between 25 and 34 with nearly six in 10 (59%) owning at least one unused mobile phone that could be sold for a cash payment.
