On-Campus Cell Phone Recycling

Recycle your old cell phones conveniently on campus! 

Salem State is proud to offer electronics recycling for our community. The e-waste bin is in the Ellison Campus Center on the first floor in the Commuter Lounge.

Cell Phone Recycling Instructions

  • Back up your data via iCloud, Google Sync, or onto your PC.
  • Sign out of all personal accounts that may hold sensitive information and delete all saved information.
  • After backing up your phone and signing out of accounts, perform a factory reset through the settings app on your device.
  • Remove the SIM or SD card (if there is a physical one), which can be found under or around the battery or in a dedicated tray along the side of your phone.

Many electronics stores also offer cell phone recycling.
