Recycle for Victory

Sprint teams up with Victory Junction to combat waste while helping children with chronic medical conditions and serious illnesses.

Sprint can help you recycle used wireless phones, batteries and accessories, from any carrier and in any condition. Donated phones are recycled with net proceeds benefiting Victory Junction. Together, we can help children in need and reduce the number of used phones that might otherwise end up in municipal landfills.
