Sort them
Start by gathering up all the old cell phones, MP3 players, chargers, headphones, and other small electronic devices collecting dust in your junk drawer.
Give them a second chance
If they still work, you might be able to repurpose them. Check online for suggestions. Or why not consider giving them to a friend or family member who can put them to good use?
Unusable?
If they no longer work and can’t be repaired, they’ve reached the end of their useful life and are ready to be recycled.
