Frequently Asked Questions: 
Is my organization eligible to collect?
Any organization, company or individual is eligible to collect phones when donating 100% of the proceeds to a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.  
How can my organization start a collection?
You can start a collection by reviewing each available program, and determining which is best suited for your organization. You can also spread the message in your community just as you would for other fund raisers. You can use this as your sole method of raising funds or make it a part of an existing fund raising plan.
What are Cell Phones Collections?
Our cell phone collection program is a completely new approach to fund raising. These programs allow your organization to capitalize on the untapped value of the hundreds of millions of used cell phones lying idle in America's closets and drawers. These phones are just waiting to be reprogrammed, refurbished or recycled to help benefit your community. Here's how it works: You collect used cell phones and we'll send you a check to help support your organization's revenue.  
Who or what will benefit from the collection of these phones?
Phones collected will generate funds to benefit the non-profit organization of your choice. This is a great opportunity to augment your support for charities. By participating in one of these programs, you can even extend the reach of your community relation’s dollars.  
How long should we conduct our collection effort?
The duration of your collection effort is up to you. Of course the more handsets you collect, the more funds you will generate for charity. We recommend a collection last at least 90 days.
Why should my company participate?
This is an easy way for your organization to fund philanthropic efforts. This program is simple to implement and requires no investment. It also enhances your company's image as a charitable and environmentally responsible organization.
How can these collections help to drive store traffic?
An in-store collection can help to bring people into your retail stores. In turn, the consumer feels good about your company and the charity you are supporting. The consumer may be more apt to make a purchase while dropping off their handset. By adding marketing initiatives to your promotions, you may increase revenues and purchases.  
Can we collect any and all cell phones?
Yes, please accept any hand-carried (not vehicle-installed) cellular, battery and charger if available. No matter the size, look or condition, all wireless phones are accepted. Smaller, newer phones generate the most funds. Mobile-installed telephones (including so-called "bag phones"), two-way radios, pagers, walkie-talkies, etc. are not accepted. Cordless phones meant for home use are not acceptable. Older phones that cannot be salvaged will be scrapped and disposed of according to appropriate EPA regulations.  
What if I don't have the charger and other accessories for my phone?
You can still send in your wireless phone alone and it will help raise funds for the program you are working with.  
How much is each used cell phone worth?
Current phone models are most in demand and can yield $10.00 or more per phone for your charity. Second tier, older phones will typically generate between $1.00 and $3.00 for your charity. And, although we will recycle the obsolete models, they will yield no funding for your charity. If the phones you collect are typical of those we have received in other collection efforts, you might conservatively target to get $1.00 per phone on average for your charity, but it all depends on the mix of phones you collect.  
What if my phone doesn't work?
The collected phones need not be in working order. Phones that cannot be refurbished will be recycled and disposed of according to the appropriate EPA regulations.  
What happens to donated phones with no resale value?
If the phone or its parts have no resale value, they will be recycled in an environmentally sound manner.
How will you track the number of phones collected?
All wireless phones will be hand counted and entered into a database. A report of collections will be sent periodically. We recommend that you put the amount of wireless phones inside each box.
How do I ship my phones?
Shipping will be free with the collection of phones. When you are ready to ship, simply contact us and we will send a label to ship the phones. Shipping will be free and completely flexible to your schedule.
