Bring any old phone or battery - any brand, any condition, bought anywhere - to PRC at St Marys or Schofields and we'll recycle it free. Batteries and phones never belong in the bin: they contain recoverable materials and can start fires in general waste.
Every take-back is logged under our product-stewardship record-keeping (NSW Product Lifecycle Responsibility). Working phones may also earn you a trade-in credit - just ask.
