This month one of the original mobile recycling sites, Mopay has announced the start of their new iPod Recycling service.

The cash for iPods service has been launched in order to offer users more value and also to try and help cut the UK’s growing electrical waste problem.

The new service will allow users to recycle any unwanted iPods ranging from the iPod classic right up to the newest iPod Touch and be paid from £2.50 up to £60 each.

The iPod trade in service launches as Mopay celebrates their 5th year in operation as one of the UK’s first mobile recycling websites.

It’s estimated that every person in the UK will have received at least one Christmas gift that will they will not want or will be just thrown in the back of a drawer for years to come. Recycling websites and auction sites like EBay see a massive increase after Christmas with people getting rid of old gifts to get hold of some extra cash.

By recycling or reusing unwanted Christmas presents not only are you doing your bit for the environment and making some extra money but also you will be reducing the need for manufacturers to put work, energy and cost into replicating these goods in the short to medium term.

Other unwanted Christmas presents that can be recycled online for cash payments include CDs, DVDs and Console Games using popular recycling site, Music Magpie. Electronics such as Mobile Phones, iPods, and digital cameras can also be recycled online for big cash payments.

Other Christmas related items that can be disposed of correctly includes wrapping paper which can be recycled at your local council recycling centre and Christmas trees that can be composted.
