GoGreen Media Ltd, who own mobile phone recycling website WeBuyAnyPhone.com, have just launched a new website called GoGreenMobiles.com.
The new website incorporates a one stop shop where you can buy a new phone and recycle your old phone at the same time. The site offers a set cost for your old phone regardless of the make and model, so consumers don’t need to worry about the value of their old phone.
The Managing Director of GoGreen Media said: “More and more people are recycling their phones after purchasing a new one. We wanted to give the customer one website where they could do both, without ruling out the customers who just want to buy a new phone. The site offers this service as a first of its kind mobile phone scrappage scheme, where you can scrap your old mobile for a new one and get up to £200 cash for any phone you choose to recycle.”
GoGreen Media believes their new site will allow them to associate with a brand that encourages consumers to be environmentally friendly while making things easy for the consumer. They feel that the mobile phone industry has a great responsbility in tackling environmental issues which can also lead to huge savings. In 2008 an estimated 1.2 billion mobiles were sold and 50-80% of these were replacement handsets.
