How to Recycle Old Mobile Phones for cash in UK?

I hate clutter, especially in the way of old and discarded electronics.  With people trading in their mobile phones for the latest technology, often times a phone is still in perfect working order when it’s discarded for the newest model.  I’ve been looking for a good way to eliminate this type of clutter from my home while earning a few extra dollars in the process.  Here is what I found.

Though eBay may be the ideal place to sell many second hand items, it is not the place to sell your old electronics.  In my area, there are very, very few independent cell phone shops, everything is tied to a carrier, which has zero interest in your old phones.  They want to sell you new technology, not help you find a new use for your old mobile phone.  Finally, I stumbled upon a gem of a place online.
