* It is an image

This time, I will introduce how to dispose of the iPhone that does not need to be trade -in, such as old terminals that were dusty at home and deviled devices.

Basically, recycling is recommended

Mobile phones, including the iPhone, are recommended by recycling by the "Small Home Appliance Recycling Law" enforced in 2013 for the purpose of reusing useful metals such as rare metals in terminals.

There are two major recycling methods.The first is to pick up at major carrier shops such as docomo, au, and Softbank.The other is the use of the collection box installed by each municipality.In both cases, pick -up and collection will be performed for free.

When the trade -in was refused due to damage at a carrier shop, some people may have said, "It will be free, but you can also pick it up ..."This was for recycling resource recovery.

Apple Recycling Program

In addition, it is possible to take over by home delivery by using Apple's recycling program.By applying from the online form, you will receive a sending kit, and you will be able to pick up Apple products including iPhone for free.

iPhone以外も！Collection boxを活用

On the other hand, the collection of iPhone in the collection box is done in the box installed in the specified collection office.The installation status and location vary depending on each local government, but here you will look at Setagaya Ward as an example.

Collection box

2021年4月時点で、世田谷区では総合支所、まちづくりセンターなど、区内10か所の公共施設に緑色のCollection boxが設置されています（自治体によって色は異なります）。iPhone含む携帯電話の他に、タブレット端末、携帯ゲーム機、デジカメ、カーナビなども無料回収しているので気軽に利用しましょう。

Finally, if you want to throw it away as garbage instead of recycling, it will be collected as "non -combustible garbage".Follow the garbage collection rules of each municipality and put them out to the specified location.
