Question:

What do I do with my old phones and vacuum cleaner?

I have some cordless phones and a vacuum cleaner, both of them don't work (broken). I don't know if I can just throw them in the garbage and they will take them? or maybe there is a place where I can take them to be recycled?Help me please

Answer:

Sell them to a second hand shop or something? You might get some cash in return :P Cause some second hand shop fix things.
Call your town department of public works. Depending on where you live they may recycle items like this. My town is supposed to be setting up a program like this. For now we just toss them in the trash.
I've set old vacuum cleaners out with my garbage, and the collectors took them. I'm not saying that's the best answer, but it works. Look up local recycling centers and see what you can find. Oh yes, make sure you've deleted your personal information from the phones if you can: Some cases of identity theft can be traced to phones that the con harvested phone numbers and similar information from. Good luck!
