Activities:

Public collection

Description: The communication campaign of collection of EoL mobile phones should be based on two basic ideas:

A. The hidden environmental impacts of mobile phones. The idea is that a mobile phone is a tiny device that fits easily in our pocket, weighing around 100 grams. However, it is calculated that the entire life cycle of a mobile phone hides 1000 times more materials and waste, about 100 kg.

B. Piling up mobile phones in a drawer does not help anything, it makes little sense. If a mobile phone is handed over to REMOBILE, then each one is assessed for possible further use (repair, spare parts, etc.) and only then is it ecologically recycled.

Simply place your unwanted mobile phone in the box, seal it and give the code for free handover at any shops covered by Packeta Group. There are about 900 such places in Prague. Collection campaign is co-funded by City of Prague and collective take-back scheme ASEKOL is main partner.
