Our advice on MetroRecycle is the same as the other stores run by Envirofone... compare prices/deals here by finding your phone, then go to Envirofone direct if they're your best choice! This site is basically a Metro branded version of the main Envirofone who runs the whole operation behind the scenes, simply avoid and confusion and go straight to the main brand controlling it.

A Metro recycling review on what Metrorecycles mobile phones is all about

The company works to reduce the quantity of handsets that land up in landfill sites substantially. Mobile phones as well as their batteries have many dangerous metals like mercury, cadmium, lead and lithium. Recycling and reuse helps in protecting the environment. It also assists in saving the natural resources. Metrorecycles guarantees that wherever possible, all the mobile phones it receives would be reused as per the directive of WEEE.

A Metrorecycles review on how the mobile phones are graded

Any Metro recycling review will tell you that if you want the entire value of a phone it has to turn on and work properly, not have considerable damage though general wearing out (little cosmetic damage would do), not have chips or cracks, have a battery in the casing of the phone, not be damaged by water, be present on the online guide of the company, be of European/UK specification and not be Password or PIN locked.

If any phone does not meet these criteria, the seller would be offered reduced price. The mobile phones that are not to be found in the online list and are manufactured more than 4 years ago would be sent for recycle automatically. Such phones would not be sent back to their owners no matter what the circumstances.

A Metro recycling review on what is done to a mobile phone that the company receives

When the firm receives a handset under the Metro recycle mobile phones they have to find the phone another home. All phones have economic value even though they might be taken apart for plastic granulation and minerals or resold. Very rarely, the company might not be able to offer you cash for your phone on their site, probably because it has crossed a specific age. However, they would find someone to use the handset. Most of the mobile phones are refurbished and made as good as new to be sold in developing economies the world over. In order to ensure that a mobile is sold many tests are carried out. It is also ensured that the phone has necessary accessories.

The handsets that are refurbished to be sold in developing countries offer the people there a lifeline that is valuable, improving the quality of their lives and offering valuable infrastructure and economic possibilities. Some of these phones would even find their way back in the European and UK mobile markets.

Selling your phone on the Metrorecycles site is very easy. You will first have to find your handset using the site's facility for simple search. You would be asked some details so that you as well as your mobile would be identified. A Sales Pack would then be sent to you by post. When you receive this pack, you would have to place the phone in a free post envelope that is provided. If your phone is expensive, it is recommended to use Special Delivery. When the company receives your sales pack, they would check your order and you would get the payment in 24 hours.
