Try listing it on the buy-sell department,who knows someone maybe in need of them.I have seen many mobile mechanics buying dead mobile for components,u can try them also,atleast u will get something out of it.

E-waste is a genuine problem - it doesnt exactly get solved by 'giving it to someone else'

U can start from

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewaste OR

http://www.google.co.in/search?q=ewaste+in+india

and move on to Indian pages...

http://www.e-waste.in/ used to be alive, now it seems to be gone - try Google's cache for the site. I think they moved to http://www.e-waste.ch/

also try http://toxicslink.org/ - it has working groups in Delhi, Chennai and Mumbai

-

Btw, did you guys know we can salvage GOLD from used/non-working cellphones?

My dear friends, I agree with Gavneet Singh's review. Goods which we did not use any more could be given to needy people. May be it can be of great use for them.

Regards.

Its called recycling not 'giving it to someone else'
