If you’ve been eyeing off one of the latest smartphones to hit the market or thinking of an iPhone upgrade after this week’s Apple announcement, your old phone can help you make it happen.

If your current phone is only a couple of years old or less, you may either be able to either take advantage of trade-in deals or cash for recycling it offered by some companies or sell it yourself on sites like eBay or Facebook marketplace.

Trade in options include;
Apple Trade In – Apple (AU)
JB Hi-Fi Trade-In (jbhifi.com.au)
Google Trade-in
Trade in for a new Galaxy Phone today | Samsung Australia

Before you dispose of your old device, be sure to make a backup, sign out of your accounts on it and do a full factory reset.
