Turn Trash into Cash - Tips from Tip Hero

We all know that if you have a plethora of aluminum cans or glass bottles, you can take them to your local recycling center in exchange for change, but there are lots of other things that you can recycle too, and many of these recyclables can turn out to be much more profitable. Let's take a look at some lesser-known methods for recycling and making money while doing so.



Cell Phones





  • Cash4Berry: use this site's phone finder tool to find out exactly how much cash you can get back for your specific phone's model.
  • UsedPhone.com: use this site to post a free ad to sell your old phone.
  • Cell for Cash: find your phone on their list, submit your information, and send your phone to receive the assigned cash value! They also offer free shipping.
  • Electronics for Cash: appraise your phone using their site and send it in for free. You can receive payment in many ways, from cash to PayPal to charitable donations.



Other Electronics




  • BuyMyTronics.com: this site will buy your new, used or broken camcorders, digital cameras, GPS's and more. Their system makes selling easy and pays you quickly.
  • YouRenew.com: here you can get cash for electronics that have value or easily recycle those that don't. Sell big items likes laptops and eReaders or small items like calculators and mp3 players. Go green, send items for free and get paid easily at YouRenew.
  • Gazelle: sell or recycle electronics like blu-ray players, desktops, e-readers, gaming consoles, camera lenses and more. Gazelle ranks #24 in INC Magazine's 500 fastest growing companies in America.



Bonus Tip: Don't have any old electronics to sell? Try checking with local businesses or schools to see if they are upgrading their systems. If so, you may be able to recycle their old models for cash!



Miscellaneous





  • Cardboard Boxes: Have you moved recently? If so, are you hoarding a bunch of perfectly good cardboard boxes you may not need again? Head to Box Cycle to sell your cardboard boxes for cash!
  • Ink Cartridges: get top dollar for your empty inkjet and laser printer cartridges. It's easy and free to ship! You could also try Advantage Cartridge or eCycleGroup.
  • Golf Balls: if you're an avid golfer, chances are you either have a multitude of golf balls or you find old forgotten balls in muddy or wooded areas. However you collect them, use these extra balls to make some extra cash.
  • Make Money by Reducing Your Carbon Footprint: this site actually pays you to reduce home energy use. All you have to do is sign up, create a profile, measure your home energy usage for the past year (and subsequently each month), reduce your energy use and collect what you earn from PayPal.
  • Make Money Off of Your Trash: in their constant effort to eliminate the idea of waste, Terracycle, one of the fastest growing green companies in the world, has created national recycling systems for previously non-recyclable items. Be sure to check out Terracycle to find out how to turn your trash into cash.



Also, as a final tip, be sure to heed this advice from eHow:

Donations of old goods may be tax deductible, saving your money even if they don't make a direct profit. Check with your accountant or the revenue service in your area to see if any of your recycling donations are deductible.

How To Send Your Child To College For Free...



Submitted by: Terry In Alabama  01/20/2011 9:35 PM
1) Buy a 4 bedroom home within 2 miles of the campus.
Make sure the mortgage will cover the entire college loan.
You will turn it into a mini-dorm.

2) Get a student loan to cover tuition.

3) Get a mortgage big enough to cover furnishing and upkeep of the property.

4) Furnish it with early "Salvation Army" furniture.
Basic student furniture: Desks, Chairs, Bed, Chest of Drawers, Lamps and a Small Bookcase.
Remember, all this is tax deductible!

5) Rent 3 of the bedrooms to individual students on a yearly basis lease, not just 9 months, cosigned by parents.
Divide the mortgage payment by 3 and get each student to pay 1/3 of the rent to cover the mortgage.

6) Keep 1 bedroom for your child as caretaker.
Hire your child as a property manager and pay them at least $100 a month to care for the property, collect rents, inspecting it weekly, renting out a room when there is a vacancy, contracting for any repairs that need to be made and report to you.
Remember, this too is tax deductible!

7) Use tax strategies to generate extra income to pay taxes and insurance.
Real Estate Depreciation, Appreciation, Points and Interest Payments are a few of the ways.
See a tax professional to get additional help here.

8) When your child graduates, sell the property to another family for a nice profit. Because of the demand for student housing in college areas, the value of your property should be substantial.
The best way to sell the property for top dollar is to run an ad in the school and city newspapers stating:
"Send your child to college for free- call me for details".

9) Pay off the college loan with the profit from the sale of the property when your child graduates.

After you create your Redbox account you can subscribe to Text Messages (look under “Edit Notifications & Subscriptions” at “Your Account”) and get a unique code for a free movie rental the first Monday of each month sent to you via text message
You need to make sure you return your one-night movie rental before it’s due to avoid an additional night’s rental fee of $1.00. Check to find your closest Redbox location, there are over 17,000. These codes can only be used “at-the-Redbox” kiosk and can not be used online to reserve the movie you want.
