The SIM card has none of your data on it except the credentials to connect to your cellular service provider's network. There is nothing to erase on it. You can simply remove the SIM card from your iPhone before sending it in for the trade-in.

You can activate cellular data service on iPad, turn cellular service on or off, and set which apps and services use cellular data. With some carriers, you can also change your data plan.
Supported models can connect to 5G networks. See the Apple Support article Use 5G with your iPad.
Note: For help with cellular network services and billing, contact your wireless service provider.
If iPad is connected to the internet using the cellular data network, an icon identifying the cellular network appears in the status bar.
If Cellular Data is off, all data services—including email, web browsing, and push notifications—use Wi-Fi only. If Cellular Data is on, carrier charges may be incurred. For example, using certain features and services that transfer data, such as Messages, could result in charges to your data plan.
Note: Wi-Fi + Cellular models don’t support cellular phone service—they support cellular data transmission only. To make phone calls on iPad, use Wi-Fi Calling and an iPhone.
If you previously set up a cellular plan, go to Settings > Cellular, tap Add a New Plan, then follow the onscreen instructions.
If you haven’t set up a plan, see Set up cellular service on iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular models).
Go to Settings > Cellular Data, then tap Manage [account name] or Carrier Services.
To turn Cellular Data on or off, go to Settings > Cellular.
To set options when Cellular Data is on, go to Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options, then do any of the following:
•Reduce cellular usage: Turn on Low Data Mode, or tap Data Mode, then choose Low Data Mode (depending on your iPad model). This mode pauses automatic updates and background tasks when iPad isn’t connected to Wi-Fi.
•Turn Data Roaming on or off: Data Roaming permits internet access over a cellular data network when you’re in a region not covered by your carrier’s network. When you’re traveling, you can turn off Data Roaming to avoid roaming charges.
Depending on your iPad model, carrier, and region, the following option may be available:
•Turn LTE on or off: Turning on LTE loads data faster.
1.Go to Settings > Cellular, then turn on Cellular Data.
2.Tap Set up Personal Hotspot, then follow the instructions in Share your internet connection from iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular).
Go to Settings > Cellular Data, then turn Cellular Data on or off for any app (such as Maps) or service (such as Wi-Fi Assist) that can use cellular data.
If a setting is off, iPad uses only Wi-Fi for that service.
If your device uses a SIM card for cellular data, you can lock the card with a personal identification number (PIN) to prevent others from using the card. Then, every time you restart your device or remove the SIM card, your card locks automatically, and you’re required to enter your PIN. See Use a SIM PIN for your iPhone or iPad.
