Of the 1,000 surveyed by ABI Research said 380 Americans that have had experience in recycling their old mobile phones, and not just throw them in a landfill. Approximately 70% of them gave phones to charities, for which he received certain tax benefits. And only 5% disposed of their devices without receiving any compensation.

Almost all those respondents (98%), which have not yet disposed of their phones, pledged to return them to the store operator, to give to charity, the manufacturer, or company engaged in repair, restoration and subsequent sale of units (refurbishing). But just in case some compensation – in cash, by transfer of funds to the credit card or tax cuts.

noted analyst ABI Research, Michael Morgan (Michael Morgan), the situation is clear. Many users in the U.S. is ready to help in reducing environmental pollution by recycling mobile phones, but in most cases they want to have a financial incentive to do so.
