Recycling in Philadelphia: A Local Guide
Philadelphia, the Neshoba County seat in east-central Mississippi, has two distinct recycling resources: a scrap-metal buy-back yard and an automated phone buy-back kiosk. The two facilities serve different materials and operate on different schedules, so choosing the right one depends on what you are bringing in.
Cain Recyclers at 221 Gum St is a staffed scrap-metal yard — part of a two-location Mississippi company (the other yard is in Kosciusko) formerly known locally as Central Mississippi Recycling. It buys ferrous and non-ferrous metals including copper (#1 and #2), aluminum cans and auto wheels, yellow and irony brass, stainless steel (304), lead, and general scrap iron and steel. Staff weigh loads at the scale house and pay in cash or check at current market prices; there is no drop-off fee. Hours are Monday–Friday 7:00 AM–4:00 PM (lunch break 11:30 AM–noon); closed weekends. This is a metals-only facility — paper, cardboard, glass, and plastics are not accepted.
ecoATM is a self-serve kiosk inside the Grocery Vestibule of Walmart Supercenter #205 at 1002 W Beacon St. It evaluates and purchases used cell phones (all brands including iPhone and Samsung Galaxy), tablets, and iPods/MP3 players on the spot for instant cash. This Philadelphia kiosk is one of the Mississippi locations equipped to accept tablets, which not every ecoATM kiosk does. Damaged or broken devices are accepted; the kiosk pays a minimum of $1 even for devices with no resale value. A valid, unexpired state- or government-issued plastic photo ID is required; sellers must be 18 or older. Kiosk hours are 7:00 AM–10:00 PM daily. Laptops, cameras, gaming consoles, and TVs are not accepted.
