Earth day
While Earth’s population grows, its ecosystems are under pressure to replenish resources that support human life on this planet – including clean water, clean air, food, fuel and fertile soils. As a leading wireless retailer in Canada, Tbooth wireless recognizes that environmental protection is essential to healthier communities and sustainable development of our planet.

Why recycle your phone?
SAVE MONEY
With the Tbooth wireless Trade-In program, you may be eligible for in-store credit against your old phone. Use this credit towards a new phone or accessories and save money!
SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT
When you give us your old phone, it is either refurbished or recycled. You save it from going into a landfill, preventing toxic chemicals from entering the soil, groundwater or the ocean. Reduce the demand for new materials by bringing your own device (BYOD) and our mobile experts will be happy to recommend the perfect plan to go with it.
SAVE TIME
Don't spend hours trying to sell your old phone. The mobile experts at Tbooth wireless can help to find it a new home or recycle it. We also ensure that setting up your new device, installing accessories and transferring data from your old phone is a breeze.
Recycling your phone is easy!
