Ecoatm
Recycling Center in Philadelphia, Mississippi
About This Location
The ecoATM kiosk in Philadelphia, Mississippi is an automated self-serve device located in the Grocery Vestibule of Walmart Supercenter #205 at 1002 W Beacon St. It is not a staffed drop-off recycling center — it is a standalone kiosk that evaluates and buys back used cell phones, tablets, and MP3 players on the spot for instant cash or digital payment. This particular kiosk is one of a small number in Mississippi that also accepts tablets. Sellers must be at least 18 years old and present a valid, unexpired state- or government-issued photo ID (military IDs, passports, passport cards, and paper IDs are not accepted). There are no fees to use the kiosk; instead, the machine offers you cash for your device. Kiosk hours follow the Walmart store's posted ecoATM service window of 7:00 AM–10:00 PM daily.
