| Don't throw away that cell phone you've replaced with a new one! The average household has three cell phones sitting in a drawer, not in use. Eventually, most of us will come across them when we are cleaning, and throw them in the garbage. By now it's probably outdated, and you aren't going to use it again. PLEASE DON'T THROW IT IN THE GARBAGE!!! Let us pick them up! We will make sure they are discarded safely, or they will be refurbished & used again. Read the facts below to find out why this is so important. |

| Facts- • One cell phone can pollute up to 132,000 liters of water. • Cell phones (and other electronic devices) contain toxic substances such as arsenic, mercury, lead, cadmium, and beryllium that can pollute the air when burned in incinerators and leach into soil and drinking water when buried in landfills. • Cadmium can damage the kidneys and it is transferred through the air and through our food. • Lead Accumulates in land fills and can cause damage to the central and peripheral nervous systems. • Mercury gets into our water supply and accumulates in living organisms and travels up the food chain. The principal exposure pathway is through our food and it causes brain damage. |

It truly couldn't be easier.
We ask for no money. We only ask that you allow us to collect cell phones that are laying
around, not in use, from your employees or customers. We do all the work. We come to you and
drop off a bin or a bag for people to drop in their old cell phone. Then we come back at a later
time and pick them up. That's it!
