Cell Phones: EcoPhones is the only program that pays for EVERY cell phone - up to $300 per phone - regardless of whether or not the phone(s) work and regardless of whether or not the phone(s) are on our price list. That is, you earn cash for every cell phone you collect including broken phones and phones not on our price list. Prices on our Cell Phone Purchase Price List reflect working phones only. Working phones are phones that include their original battery, power up, possess an undamaged LCD screen, make a test call and are not cracked or otherwise damaged. Non-working phone models that appear on the list will be credited 20% of the corresponding working phone price. Working and non-working phones not included on our price list will be credited at competitive prices. Cell phone prices are subject to change.

Ink Jet Cartridges: EcoPhones is the only program that pays for EVERY ink jet cartridge – up to $5 per cartridge - regardless of whether or not the cartridge(s) work and regardless of whether or not the cartridge(s) are on our price list (see Ink Jet Purchase Price List). EcoPhones accepts ink jet cartridges only. We do not accept laser or toner cartridges. (TIP: If the cartridge is larger than the palm of your hand it is not an ink jet cartridge.) EcoPhones does not pay for damaged, reconditioned or refilled cartridges. Ink jet cartridge prices are subject to change.

Laptop / Notebook Computers: We pay something for every laptop / notebook computer - working or not! We DO NOT accept desktop / tower computers & monitors. We will send you a shipping bill plus handling charges for shipments of desktop / tower computers and/or monitors. Working laptop / notebook computers are computers that power up (must include battery) and all of the following are intact & undamaged: RAM, floppy drive (if applicable), CD drive, DVD drive (if applicable), all ports, screen, latches, and are not cracked, 'locked' or otherwise damaged. Pack laptop / notebook computers carefully - use bubble wrap. Do not use styrofoam 'peanuts' - these cause static electricity which will damage the computer and result in a reduced payment. Non-working laptop / notebook computers or those with excessive cosmetic damage will be credited at a reduced rate, i.e. 20% of the working laptop / notebook computer price. We do not buy laptops with recalled batteries. NOTE: All laptop computers sent to EcoPhones have their hard drives immediately removed and destroyed. You may remove and keep your own hard drive. EcoPhones will still pay full working price for laptops that have had their hard drives removed prior to shipping to EcoPhones provided all of the other conditions listed above are met. Please keep the hard drive holder intact, i.e. 'caddy' / enclosure.

iPods: We pay something for every Apple iPod - working or not! Working iPods are devices that power up (must include battery) and all of the following are undamaged: data port, microprocessor, memory, digital signal processor (DSP), display, playback controls, audio port and amplifier. Non-working iPods or those with excessive cosmetic damage will be credited at a reduced rate, i.e. 20% of the working iPod price.

Digital Cameras: We pay something for every digital camera - working or not! Working digital cameras are cameras that power up (must include battery) and all of the following are undamaged: memory, flash, microprocessor, display and playback controls. Non-working digital cameras or those with excessive cosmetic damage will be credited at a reduced rate, i.e. 20% of the working digital camera price.

Shipping Charges: EcoPhones will pay all shipping costs to send collected items provided you (the sender) use our online pre-paid return shipping labels and care is taken to keep shipping costs within reason. The return shipping service is to be ground only, EcoPhones will not cover the costs of premium shipping services. NOTE: To ensure prompt and accurate processing of your shipment(s) please clearly identify your organization's name, contact name, address and phone number either on the pre-paid shipping label(s) or a note inserted inside your box(es).

Accessories: While EcoPhones will accept accessories, (chargers, cases, earpieces, etc.) we will chargeback the cost of shipping  boxes of accessories ($20) and we prefer that you dispose of them locally. Accessories have no value and are bulky and heavy to transport. Shipping this material around the country only contributes to the pollution of our environment. Accessories typically do not contain toxic materials and can generally be disposed of with normal household waste. Some communities have special recycling initiatives in place for this type of material.

Shipping Boxes: Any sturdy box can be used to send items to us. Recycling your empty office supply boxes is a great way to help save money and protect the environment. NOTE: To ensure prompt and accurate processing of your shipment(s) please clearly identify your organization's name, contact name, address and phone number either on the pre-paid shipping label(s) or a note inserted inside your box(es).

Privacy Policy: EcoPhones will not sell or allow an affiliate or third party to use any of the information provided by program participants for the purposes of solicitation.

Email Addresses: EcoPhones uses email as our primary means of communicating with program participants. It is extremely important that program participants provide valid email addresses and update them when they change if they wish to receive shipment confirmations and other program update information. (NOTE: To ensure reception of important email correspondence from EcoPhones, please add EcoPhones.com to your email address book.)

Payment Terms: EcoPhones payment terms are 30 days from the date the items are inspected.

Commercial Disposal Disclaimer: EcoPhones can only support these programs on the basis that a reasonable proportion of the donated items can be refurbished and/or recycled for reuse. As such, this program is designed for the participation and support of your members and any old or used personal use consumer electronics they may have in their possession, or may obtain as donations from other individuals. It is not intended as a means by which commercial enterprises or other organizations can dispose of large quantities of consumer electronics that are only suitable for disassembly and reclamation. Should this occur, EcoPhones reserves the right to refuse shipments of such material and terminate further participation in the program. If you are approached by organizations wishing to dispose of large quantities of such material please refer them to your EcoPhones representative and we will make arrangements for their material to be disposed of appropriately.
