Help Us "Wipe Out Wireless Waste"

"Wipe Out Wireless Waste" is a campaign to recycle used wireless phones and generate proceeds for local community improvement and revitalization projects through Keep America Beautiful.

With more than 255 million wireless subscribers in the U.S. today, the need to keep used wireless phones out of local landfills is more important than ever. The "Wipe Out Wireless Waste" campaign makes it easy for anyone to recycle their mobile phone equipment, and in turn provides funding to Keep America Beautiful and its network of affiliates that supports diverse hands-on stewardship activities such as cleanups of public lands and waterways, tree and flower plantings, and recycling activities.

Phones, batteries and accessories recycled through the "Wipe Out Wireless Waste" program are not tax deductible. However, these contributions provide two important benefits: 1) protecting the environment through recycling, and 2) raising money for cleanup, green-up efforts in your local community.

Did you know?

A 2005 CEA consumer survey found that 76 percent of consumers are unaware of their local electronics recycling options. Of that 76 percent, 71 percent said they would recycle if they only knew where to do so.
The average lifespan of a wireless phone is 18months. (EPA’s "Life Cycle of a Cell Phone")
Phones are being discarded at a rate of 125 million phones a year, which results in over 65,000 tons of wireless waste. (EPA, E-Cycling Initiative)
The most eco-friendly thing you can do with an old phone is to reuse it.
Recycling the phones ensures that the toxic materials they contain don’t end up in our landfills.
Phones collected from this program are either refurbished and reused or smelted down for metals and plastics at an EPA regulated facility that is ISO14001 certified.
