Introduction
It is estimated there are up to 100 million obsolete phones in the UK, in homes and businesses. All of which may have both commercial value and precious materials which can be used to manufacture new products. Mobile phone trade in is the simple answer to this problem and the team at TMT First are here to help.
Is your organisation sat on a stock of old tech? Then what’s stopping you cashing them in?
Why Don’t More Mobile Phones Get Traded In?
When it comes to mobile phone trade in there are a number of factors which influence consumers and business customers.
- Back Up – old phones are often kept as a backup in case damage to the new one. But do you really need more than one backup?
- Security – customers are concerned when they trade in an old mobile phone their data may be compromised, even following a factory reset. Some consumers are not sure how to do a factory reset.
- Priority – time and inclination leads to old phones not being traded and just lying around gathering dust.
- Commercial Benefit – the value of old phones isn’t clear to consumers and businesses, so the motivation isn’t always there to trade in.
- Environmental Consideration – businesses and individuals may not realise that recycling of phones properly leads to the recycling of precious metals for future use.
