Donate Your Electronics to Save a Dog!

   Dogs don’t belong in “kill shelters,”
and cell phones and other electronics don’t belong in landfills.
Be the solution to both problems by
donating your old cell phones, ink-jet cartridges and other electronics
to Austin German Shepherd Dog Rescue. 
Items we can accept for recycling
  • Ink-jet cartridges
  • Hand-held game systems like Nintendo DS, Sony PSP Gameboy, Gamegear, etc.
  • Cell phones
  • MP3 players/ipods
  • Digital cameras

Special Cell Phone Recycling Steps:
  1. Disconnect service to your cell phone.

  2. Guard any personal data by erasing the phone's memory.  The following link offers detailed instructions for clearing the memory of most cell phones:  http://www.recellular.com/recycling/data_eraser/default.asp

Recycling Steps for ALL Donated Items

  1. Give your donated items to an AGSDR volunteer at any AGSDR event or mail them to our donation coordinator (one of our many San Antonio volunteers has graciously offered to be the collection point for all mailings). Please contact foster@agsdr.org to donate phones or ink jet cartridges.

    Ink-Jet Instructions:  PLEASE be sure to put ink-jet cartridges in a separate plastic zip-lock bag and seal them to keep the ink from leaking on the cell phones. 

  2. Spread the word so that we can save even more dogs!  Your friends, family, and co-workers likely have old phones, ink jet cartridges or electronics lying around, too!

  3. We will then sell your items to a recycler and use the funds to save even more dogs from harm!

Be aware that it is your responsibility to guard your personal data on your donated cell phone. By giving us your phone, you agree to hold the AGSDR harmless for any and all losses from the use or misuse of any personal information that you left on the phone.
