I looked in my closet yesterday and realized I had some old, now dinosour-like electronics (remember how big the first generation ipods were?) Anyway, now that ipods, laptops, cell phones and other electronics have been on the market for a long time (that old ipod was purchased 5 years ago already!), there’s a lot of waste. People need a solution for throwing out their old electronics responsibly.

This is where ecoATM comes in, a company that has created an ‘eCycling’ station for pricing and buy-back of used consumer electronics and mobile phones for trade-in/trade-up and recycling. While ecoATM won’t give you cash for an old device, it will offer money off something in the store it’s installed in, or let you choose from various gift cards. eco ATM’s are expected to roll out in stores in San Diego (where they’re based), Boston, Dallas and Seattle.
