Recycling devices is a huge part of what we do with NIX and the rewards are twofold.
- It helps prevent pollution from landfill and additional resource gathering
- It allows us to pass on more savings to you
When phones are manufactured they use metals and carbon based plastics which involves mining and extracting ore. These materials are then transported, heated & refined in a process to create the components that make up our favourite devices.
All of this takes a toll on the environment.
Along with carbon based plastics we’re also using gold, copper, zinc, aluminium, and chromium to make metal cases, electrical contacts & components. There is a limited supply of all of the materials, so when we discard a phone, we are requiring more materials to be mined to create a new phone.
So when we finish with a device, while leaving it in a drawer is better than it sitting in a landfill site, there’s still so much more we can do with it. Trading your phone in with NIX is the primary way to bring down the cost of a brand new phone, and it helps the environment.
Here’s how to do it:
- Put in your phone model here
- Enter your IMEI for a more accurate price (find this out by dialing *#06# on your homescreen)
- Enter a few extra details
- Get your trade-in price from NIX
- Choose your new upgrade
When we have your phone, we can refurb it and sell it onto someone looking for a low-price second-hand phone, which again reduces the strain on the need for new raw materials.
Don’t worry if your phone is too damaged for someone else to use. We can still make the most out of it to reduce the impact on the environment by responsibly recycling your phone and using the materials to make new products.
What’s more, with NIX you can trade multiple devices at once, so you can empty your drawer of all the old phones and try and get your brand new mobile as close to zero as possible.
Try it today and see how much you could save on your new mobile with NIX.
