Sell broken phones
If you’re looking to sell your broken phones for cash, there are various UK phone recycling companies that would love to take them off your hands! Most people think that you can only sell your phone if it is still working but luckily for us, that’s not the case.
To help you out, I’ve gone through all of the websites I can find and listed the three that you can sell your mobile to if it’s broken. Obviously they have to be whole so you can’t just put a pile of bits in the envelope, but if you’ve cracked your screen or it doesn’t turn on then you might as well get some money for it. It’s worthless to you in that state; you can’t even use it as a spare phone!
Some companies will allow you to select ‘non-working’ when you enter the phone on their site and tell you exactly how much they will pay you as long as it meets their checklist of requirements. Others want you to post it in so they can have a look at it, then they get back to you with an offer. Whether you want to wait for them to do this is up to you. I suspect much will depend on how ‘broken’ the phone is!
Unfortunately, the comparison tool at the top of Buy My Phone! only gives values for working phones but a lot of the companies will deal with broken phones too. Either use the comparison tool and click through to see if they take broken phones, or check out the links below.
I’ve divided the companies into two lists, depending on how they value your phone:
Instant on-screen valuation
Post-in valuation

With the average mobile phone contract length being around 18 months, many people end up with a perfectly functioning phone that they just don’t use once they start their new contract.
With the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive placing the onus on manufacturers to set up a way for their redundant products to be collected, this has blossomed into a large industry with a multitude of benefits for us, the consumer!
Numerous companies now offer mobile phone recycling through the post and can offer quite substantial amounts of money if you sell your mobile to them, depending on age, condition and the new value of the phone.
Mobile phones can contain a lot of heavy metals, either from the soldering on the circuit boards or from the batteries and these can cause environmental pollution if not disposed of correctly. With over 60 million phones no longer in use in the UK there’s a good chance you could have a few sat around your house doing nothing, when they could be exchanged for cold hard cash!
