SAN FRANCISCO -- Got an old iPhone sitting in the closet collecting dust? If so, then Apple wants your old phone.
Apple has quietly introduced a recycling program on their website.
They are offering to buy up old iPhones for hundreds of dollars of credit.
Instead of the old trade-in deal, people can now swap their old iPhone, Mac, or iPad into Apple directly.
To get the Apple credit, users must answer a few questions online about their phones' condition.Then an estimate of a trade is generated.
The offer is only available online.
