Cell Phone Recycling Program
Recycle Your Cell Phones to Benefit Doorways
Recycling your phone will provide the needed funds to give a home to those fleeing abuse or homelessness. Answer the Call by donating your cell phone today to help a Doorways family in need.
Doorways has formed a new partnership with Cellular Recycler to turn your old cell phones into cash. Hosting a collection drive at your work, your faith organization, or anywhere else in the community is a low maintenance and free option when deciding how you would like to help Doorways.
Why should your organization or group join Doorways’ Cell Phone Program?
- • Recycling cell phones raises money to support Doorways’ award-winning programs
- • We offer free collection boxes and shipping slips to make collecting easy
- • Helps not only the environment by recycling but also helps you de-clutter your life
Get started today! Follow these steps:
- 1. Think about how you would like to collect the phones. Cellular Recycler, our recycling partner, accepts other small electronics, in addition to cell phones, which can be recycled for cash, including iPods, digital cameras, gaming consuls, and PDA’s. You can ask family and friends or organize a drive at your work, your faith organization, your school, or any other community location.
- 2. Once you’ve decided where you would like to collect cell phones, order your free collection box by clicking on the icon below. Your box(es) should arrive within one week.
- 3. Place the box in a high-trafficked area to collect the most cell phones.
- 4. Once the box has filled or once you have at least 10 cell phones, you can either seal that box or place the cell phones in a different box to continue your collection drive for weeks, months, or years. Then, print out your free UPS label to ship your cell phones directly to Cellular Recycler on our behalf by clicking on the icon below.
- 5. Within one to two weeks of shipment, you will receive an invoice by e-mail from Cellular Recycler informing you of the items that they have received.
- 6. Continue the drive for as long or as short as you would like, shipping cell phones as the box becomes full. If your collection box becomes worn, just fill out the form to receive a new one.
- 7. If you have any questions, please e-mail or call Wyatt Schroeder, Communication and Outreach Coordinator, at wschroeder@DoorwaysVA.org or (703) 504-9283.
