Safety Guide:How to Dispose Your Old Headphones

Did your favorite family member or friend gift you a new pair of Shokz this year? Lucky you! Now only one question remains; what do you do with your old pair of Shokz headphones? Read on for our tips on how to safely and responsibly dispose of your well-loved headphones. 

Re-Gift 

Is your old pair still in great shape? Do you have a loved one who asks you about your Shokz all the time? Is there someone in your life who works from home a lot, or goes on nightly runs? Surprise and delight them with a gently-used pair of Shokz! Reset your headphones using your Shokz user manual, clean and disinfect, then pack them in the included carrying pouch/bag, and voila! You have the perfect eco-friendly gift. 

Donate 

Donating to a local charity is always another great option. Thrift stores such as Goodwill or The Salvation Army will usually accept gently-used electronics, or you can reach out to other neighborhood nonprofits that can pass on your old Shokz to someone in need. 

Recycle

If you don’t want to or are unable to re-gift or donate your old headphones, Shokz recommends recycling them using Call2Recycle, the country’s largest, most reliable battery recycling program. You can either drop off your headphones at a convenient location near you or mail your headphones using one of their safe shipping options.
