Which I thought was cool because the Fry's store I bought it at also has free electronics recycling in it's parking lot every Saturday and Sunday from 9-5. I want to thank Fry's for offering this service to it's customers. It is run by EcoRanger Electronic Recycling which is a company that specializes in electronic waste and collection and removal. They also offer free pick up of TV's, printers, cords, computers, medical equipment and scrap metal. Employee Brandon Ranger mans the Fry's recycling center off Aero Drive and is very efficient and capable. He keeps those cars dropping off old TV's and computers moving along nicely. This is a very important service as electronic cast outs as trash are full of all kinds of toxic chemicals which DO NOT belong in our landfills. And the chief aim of EcoRanger Recycling is to take these unusable computers, monitors, cell phones, and other outdated electronics and make sure that none of the hazardous waste that is part of the electronics stays out of the waste stream. 5 YELP STARS for that!

I have been working in and around technology for the last 10 years.

These Eco ATM machines are about the size of an arcade cabinet. They have a touch screen that is about chest height on a typical adult, and beloe that a metal door that opens (makes me think of a security drop door). Inside the door is a glass shelf where the customer would place their phone or device (the item they want to sell). A robotic voice and mascot greets you on that screen and walks you through the process. I was not expecting a payout, but even if you wanted half a minute to ponder selling that "old phone you forget you even had" I would say it takes about 3 minutes per transaction. The only flaw I saw in this machine is that it is TOO user friendly, it would be easy for someone to just rapid fire the next button without reading and throw their phone into the machine as soon as it opened. I bet many people throw their phones in and bang the machine when the door does not open. Another warning is the verbage this machine uses. If your phone is worth $0, it will say "your phone has no market value, but you can recycle it" or some such. User be warned, no market value means your phone is only worth scraping, not the $5 you were hoping to get. If you cleaned your garage and stumbled across some random old cell phones or devices and you would rather recycle them then throwing them in the trash, then I say use this, the ECO ATM may even throw a few bucks your way. I would not drive to an ECO ATM machine with the hopes that your old electronics are going to pay for your dinner.

After a few relatively good experiences with this type of ATM I ran into all sorts of problems in order to get a transaction completed. One hiccup it kept having was acknowledging my ID. And then after that hurdle was crossed then the machine had problems detecting just what kind of device I was trying to have assessed for cash value. This was attempted a few different times and on more than one occasion. Finally I had enough of playing around with this machine and have washed my hands of using it any further.
