You Can Snag a Rare Discount on Apple Accessories by Recycling an Old Device – MakeUseOf


Apple devices don’t come cheap, which is why it’s always nice when a deal pops up. Apple currently has an offer going on that’ll let you recycle an old device for a discount on a new Apple accessory, and honestly, it’s a pretty great way to put that drawer of forgotten tech to good use.

You Can Save 10% on Your Next Apple Accessory

As noted on Apple’s Current Offers webpage, the company currently has a 2025 Earth Day Promotion going on, allowing users to recycle an Eligible Device in exchange for a 10% discount on an Eligible Apple Accessory.

This offer is only valid at brick-and-mortar Apple Store locations within the United States and will run from April 16, 2025, to May 16, 2025 (while supplies last).

What Can You Use Your Old Smartphone for Instead of Selling It?

Sometimes, selling your old phone for some extra cash isn’t the best option.

You can recycle the following devices:

  • AirPods
  • AirPort
  • AirTag
  • Apple TV
  • Computers
  • Displays
  • Hard Drives & Storage
  • Headphones & Speakers
  • HomePod
  • Mice & Keyboards
  • Networking
  • Printers & Scanners
  • Smartphones
  • Tablets
  • Watches
  • iPod

Once recycled, you can use the 10% discount to purchase one of the following Apple Branded accessories:

  • Adapters
  • AirPods 4
  • AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation
  • AirTag (1-pack)
  • AirTag (4-pack)
  • Apple Pencil
  • Apple TV 4K
  • Apple Watch bands
  • Cables
  • Chargers
  • HomePod mini
  • iPad cases
  • iPhone cases
  • Magic Keyboard (excluding Magic Keyboard for iPad)
  • Magic Mouse
  • Magic Trackpad

You can recycle up to five Eligible Devices during this period. Unfortunately, refurbished products and open-box returns cannot be exchanged as part of this promotion and won’t qualify for a discount.

Now, we know that a 10% discount may sound close to nothing when it comes to Apple products. The good news is that this promotion can be combined with other Apple promotions for “individual end-user customers,” which likely refers to people buying products for personal use instead of institutions or resellers, as long as they fall within the same Promotion Period.

For instance, if you’re a current (or newly accepted) university student or a parent of one, a faculty member, staff, or homeschool teacher of any grade level, you’ll qualify for Apple’s education pricing, which offers discounts on select products including AirPods and AirTags.

If you have a device that falls within Apple’s eligibility criteria, and it’s just rotting away in your cupboard, you can recycle it, get a 10% discount, and combine it with the education discount!

You’ll need a photo ID to recycle a device, so make sure you take it with you when heading to the Apple store.

All in all, this is a neat way to put your old, forgotten devices to good use, and the perfect excuse to upgrade to that shiny new Apple accessory you’ve had your eye on.
