Mobile Phones

If your mobile is still working consider extending its life by either selling it or passing it on to friends and family. Remember to remove any data on your phone before you sell or give your phone away (Tips for a hassle-free handover). 

If your phone doesn’t have any resale value or has stopped working, it can be recycled for free at Council's Customer Service Centre, most mobile phone stores, Woolworths stores and selected OfficeWorks stores as part of the MobileMuster program.

They can also be taken to the Northern Sydney Community Recycling Centre.

They are also accepted as part of our recycling doorstep pick-up service RecycleSmart, find out more here

You can also drop them off to The Reconnect Project (accepts old or damaged laptops, tablets or phones) who will repair them for people in need.

Note: Before you recycle, sell or give away your mobile phone, you should remove your personal information (Data management tips).
