Verizon Wireless has launched their Verizon Wireless Trade-In Plan, which permits clients from any wi-fi carrier to get worth from no-longer-used wireless gadgets and help the atmosphere at the same time.

Customers who take part within the Trade-In Plan will submit their gadgets for appraisal online at www.trade-in.vzw.com and receive a postage-paid envelope to mail in the devices. In exchange for buying and selling in their gadgets, customers may receive a Verizon Wireless gift card by mail. The amount of the gift card will probably be based on the make, model and situation of the device and can be used toward the buy of telephones and equipment or to pay Verizon Wireless bills. Devices that haven’t any appraised value can still be sent in for recycling.
