Are you planning to upgrade to the iPhone 4S? If so, did you know that Apple will recycle your old iPhone at no cost to you? If the device is in good shape, Apple will even apply a monetary value toward the old device and send you an Apple Gift Card. For example, a 32GB iPhone 4 that works properly, has a battery that maintains a full charge, and doesn’t have cracks, scratches or water damage can yield a $200 Apple Gift Card.
Apple offers a similar deal for iPads, Macs and PCs. You can also recycle your iPod or mobile phone responsibly. You merely need to send Apple your iPod or any mobile phone by mail, and they will recycle it for you. Alternatively, you can bring your old iPod to an Apple Retail Store and get 10 percent off a new one (though this particular deal does not extend to the iPod Shuffle).
