There are two ways to recycle them 1. Drop them off at your local mobile phone retailer eg. Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, 3 Mobile, Allphones, Fone Zone and Crazy Johns stores or your local Cartridge World store, or ANZ Branch if you are in Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra or Melbourne or participating local councils - just go to www.mobilemuster.com.au and type in your suburb or postcode to find your nearest collection point. There are over 3000 nationwide (including coober pedy!) 2. Pick up a recycling satchel at participating Australia Post outlets - just go up to counter and ask for one - you can pop your mobile, battery, charger and accessories in this and drop in a street mail box Also for those people who recycle their mobiles between now and World Environment Day 5 June - MobileMuster and Landcare Australia will plant a native tree as part of the joint initiative Old Phones More Trees. Last year we collected enough handsets to start planting 75,000 trees across Austarlia - this year we hope to collect enough to plant 100,000 trees. For more information go to www.mobilemuster.com.au or call 1300 730 070 Kind regards Rose Read Manager Recycling Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association Dear Jean
