Verizon adds tablets to Trade-In program

Posted: 02 Apr 2011 05:29 AM PDT

Verizon Wireless has announced that tablets will now be accepted for its Trade-In Program, which is meant to offer customers a green way to get rid of their old devices. The program initially launched in 2010, exclusively for mobile phones. Now, tablets have been added to Verizon's list of eligible devices, and participants can receive up to $300 back for trading in a device in good condition.

If you don't have cash overflowing from your pockets, but still want to trade up tablets or phones, Verizon's Trade-In Program may help pay for whatever new device you're into; plus, you'll be keeping the planet healthy as you do it.
