Where I live old phones, returned to the phone companies, are refurbished and then donated to women's shelters where they are handed out to disenfranchised women so they can call 911 in an emergency.
Of course the machine is going to say no cash value so you will hit the recycle button and later on the owner comes along and pulls out all them phones and makes a nice profit..lol
Those machines are just a clever scam. Tell you a bunch of recycling facts and get you to "recycle" your phone. Mean while there going to take them and fix them or strip for parts and resell for a high profit. Btw I will buy any broken phone you get.
Ryan yup there are alot of utubers plus people who fix them up & resale etc...that use the parts to rebuild the models, I watched 1 guy yesterday buy around 10 iphone x for around £1000, he was able to use the parts & made 2 perfect iphone X’s that are fully working & not a scratch on them...
@@yvonnesmith9107 yes, they do that for the views, not so they can make money off the iphones. It's possible they do eventually sell them, because why not, but they could just as well throw them in the trash after the video is done.
That's smart...the owners of the machine I mean. They pray on people's fear of seaming like they care more about money than the environment, so they give you $0 and a warm fuzzy feeling in your heart.....then they empty the machine and sell the phones for scrap gold and platinum and make $1000's. Brilliant!
@@douglasgoldstein8990 Sure i guess if you ignore the cost of the machine, paying walmart I'm sure, employees collecting the phones, breaking them down into pieces or what parts are valuable and smelting the precious metals but you're really reaching lol and it would be naive to think that they're not in the business to make money lol
@@user-wx7mi5dj8u the machines are exactly the same as any vending machine, 1 person owns them, so that person collects all the money/phones deposited. It's then up to them to break them down. And the machine is a 1 time expense. If it wasn't lucrative, the machines wouldn't exist. Like you said, it's all about making money.
And that is ok, better they do that then the phones end up in the landfill. If that is what they do, then they are resellers just like Steph and Steve. Don't you think that other resellers come and buy stuff of Steph and Steve when they sell their items cheap and then turn around and flip the items for more money? Everyone getting a piece of the pie.🤗🇩🇰
@@skaarup33 that kiosk probably does worse then the landfill...they may even ship their ewaste to other countries...they are in the biz to make money. ..those kiosks are not a guarantee what is to happen to those phones...they may even end up back in some Temecula dumpster!
You are lying. I just checked on EcoATM website (you can get the value of a phone on their website) and an iPhone X (there is no 10 x) is worth $115 at a EcoATM kiosk.
@@lindaconnell7394 dawg they have already said that you cant pick it up off of surfaces. Most viruses cant survive outside of a host for more than a few hours. Sunlight kills viruses. So. Be afraid of peoples' mouths. Not surfaces.
I was just watching you guys yesterday thinking about how much stuff you have kept out of the landfill. I wonder how much it would be if it was all put together, what you donated , what you recycled and what you resold!! One heck of a lot!! Great job guys!! Many blessings to you both!!
If they have no cash value, take them back, take the gold wire out, put them back in and hit recycle to begin with. Over time, you will cumulate some gold value.
really interesting - loved learning the details about silver/gold being tossed out, and about the water waste just from making ONE phone - shocking! Thank you!
Just glad Steve made it clear at the end that they could have made more by selling on eBay, but wanted to investigate this process for us. Thanks, just as I suspected......a way to get taken advantage of.......
I think it's funny that I still use my IPhone 5C. It still works just fine. I don't do a lot of internet things with it but it still works for texts and calls and I still can take pictures with it. I am 63 and I don't need a fancy phone. That and I can't fathom spending $1000.00 on a phone. This was interesting! Thanks for the video!😁✌
Im on my DG dumpster Android!! I found three brand new in the box nice minute phones i use them on wifi here at home to do things and like that I still have two brand new ones i haven't used at all when this one gets full of data overload!! Haha..
hello !! my God, here in Brazil we don't have these machines and another thing we will hardly find an iPhone thrown in the trash, here they are very expensive, but congratulations to you for your videos I love it !!!!
“Or just people that you know” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣laughed so hard at that cause it’s so TRUE 😉 love you guys so much. And this was so cool to watch, have never seen a machine like this one before. And learned a lot of great info from it too. Thanks for sharing this and for another Awesome video 👍

First time viewer of this particular channel & I commend this couple for trying there luck at selling those phones via that machine. And for recycling the phones that were not worth anything, as well. Because sure while the aim of reselling is to make as much bread, in terms of profit as you possibly can, there is also a thing called *’integrity.’* Something that judging by this couple’s actions, you can tell they have in spades. So good on you, my friends. *SUBSCRIBED!!!* 😉
LOVE IT!!!!! I keep old phones in their boxes in our guest room closet! I knew not to pitch them; and, trade-in was too low. Looks like I’ll get a shelf back!!
When I first started seeing theses machines was in 2016 in spartanburg South Carolina and these machines paid way more back then I sold them a bs LG phone for 80$ I think over time they started to rip ppl off on the payout smh
I'm from Spartanbu Sc and I've tried to use these machines in Walmart to sell broken iphones and they always say it isn't worth anything...knowing whoever owns these machines is going to make money off of the phones you donate... it is a SCAM!!!
I just recently started watching your videos and I absolutely love you all and Jerry to. You really are helping our environment by Dumpster Diving and collecting many items that do not belong in The land fills! Thanks for Recycling all those phones. Well they were all free and you gained $7.00 ! Keep up the good work and keep making us laugh and giving lots of tips to, especially about all those Gift cards. Take care. BTW I am a Subscriber since last November. I am catching up on older videos.👍❤️
Never heard or seen an ECOATM before. Pretty cool. I use to send my phones to a recycling company for free. Sometimes they didn't want the battery it was to be recycled separately. The batteries have a certain "mineral" (forgot the name now) that has to be dug out of the earth. So by recycling that mineral you can save some of the planet.
The same thing happened with old carseats, you used to be able to trade them in for cash at Wal-Mart but it only lasted about a month because people started breaking into cars to steal the carseats for cash 🤦 It happened to a few people in my town.
wow thats cool. I have a bunch of old phones, i need to get rid of. ill check my local Walmart to see if they have this machine there. Thanks for showing us. I had no idea what to do with these old phones. This is a great idea!
My thoughts exactly! It's more important that the phones are recycled the right way then make a few extra dollars. Plus who knows what will happen to the phones if they sell them on Ebay.... 🤗🇩🇰
@louiseleu I am not too sure of what you are trying to say here, and I don't think that neither do you, but hey, you do you. Like what Steph and Steve always say "Enjoy your life!"🤗🇩🇰
Steph and Steve, I just ABSOLUTELY Love watching the both of you. I can't wait for Evening to come and I can relax from Caring for my Mother. I turn on my IPad so that I can see your Treasures. I have to tell you that I went DUMPSTER DIVING today. I didn't find anything but that was O.K. It looked like the Trash Man had already been th. I was LOL because I had my friend with me and she has OCD. the look on her face was priceless. Thank You for making my night so enjoyable. God Bless and stay HEALTHY.
not much i was offered $25 dollars from one for a iphone 8 in excellent conditione and unlocked, those phones that were in good shape and if they powered up worth $20 ,5s $10 dont believe those machines
I’m intimidated by electronic machines like that phone kiosk. I get flustered and am afraid of messing something up. It really helped to see you use it several times - I have a few old phones sitting in a drawer.
Thanks for showing us how this behemoth works. I’ve seen it, but always afraid to try it out. Just think how excited y’all would been to find seven bucks laying in the dumpster! You kept all this gold, silver, and non-biodegradable metal out of our landfills. Great job, guyz 👍
UR SOO welcome STEVE n Steph ... TU SOO MUCH 4 Bringing + Content & great info. 2 Our World 🌍... & our lives ... and U helping recycle so much & spread the word about how much is wasted & how 2 make the world a better place by fixing things 2 resell instead of the rampant waste out there .. 💜 Ya Guys... . & U 2 Make Such a Great & Loving Couple 2...

That is so cool. You guys are so good to take your time to recycle. I have to start looking for phones now. I dont think we have a kiosk here in "Podunk" South Carolina but I'll just send them to you guys. Happy Diving!
My daughter works for that company. Red Box owns that company too. I'm glad they started that. Imagine all the old batteries and junk that ended up seeping poisons into our landfills and possibly one day our water table.
As you mentioned, I’m so glad that you took these phones to ECO ATM (not a paid advertisement) 😂 and recycled them! Such a “green” thing to do! I watched your video last night, and I recall you found 2 5c s but in this video I saw only 1 ! Does that mean that the other 5c is working and someone was able to use it for awhile?! That thought would be nice 👍
Steve Steph thank you for sharing this video as you both selling15 I phones that you found to a cell phone machine in Walmart I have not done it before hope you both will get some money from the cell phone machine at Walmart love watching it you both have a wonderful weekend
Wow, that’s kind of fun. Never seen or heard of those machines. I’ll have to investigate and see if we have those machines here in Ontario, Canada. TFS Hugz
They used to pay way more for your phones... about the same as what you could get selling it online. Now their prices have dropped to nothing it seems. My mom still uses my old 6S Plus iPhone and it works fine. I have the new 11 that I use and have my old 8 still, yet she wants to stick with the 6. 🤷🏼♀️😂 You probably could’ve sold them all online but I guess this was all about the experience so it’s all good! 😁
Good video people say u could do this u could do that , but rember you got them of dumpster & when did you ever hear being greedy is worth it & if it makes something out of nonthing y squeeze more see we wonder why there so much hate in world if get water free we expect juice free too. I dont know how many will understand this just be happy for want u get & have not want u except u should have im talkin of experience but I was givin a second chance so I'm enjoying life with my kids & hope everyone can 1 day be happy 4 what u have & other that share there videos like this with us ... I might be able to have a Christmas but I got life thank you 4 reading this
I see where people save up the phones till they have a good amount and put it for sale online and they get way more money for them. People buy the lots for parts. Maybe try that next time.
Good luck, Hope you make some bucks...i found four working Android phones just recently in a bin, they all work, Just very scratched screens, Older "Galaxy S4" - Not worth much...jeez, that's a great machine, We haven't got those in Australia, maybe in big city - Sydney? Cheers 😊
I was wondering what had become of those phones. Thanks for showing us how easy it is to use those machines. Time for me to take some old phones to be sold.
Thanks for doing this video. I wanted to "see" how that machine worked. We have lots of phones that was found over the years for this machine . Would suggest one to two at a time, or space it out?
this is pretty cool, but you could make more money taking the phones apart, selling the housings to phone collectors and restorers and recycling the internal parts. Some people will even buy the whole phone, recycle the internals and use the externals.
Where I live old phones, returned to the phone companies, are refurbished and then donated to women's shelters where they are handed out to disenfranchised women so they can call 911 in an emergency.
motherofone1 - That is a very worthwhile thing to do! I’ll have to find out about my area!
The refurbish and donate to women’s shelters here in the Central Valley, CA too.
Better off donating to places like that. The machine is a complete ripoff.
D. Vasquez HRM - SOC where at in specific? I’d love to donate some old phones!
That's actually sad if you think bout it...
Of course the machine is going to say no cash value so you will hit the recycle button and later on the owner comes along and pulls out all them phones and makes a nice profit..lol
I would not recycle it to this machine. Rip off !!!
The phones are old and useless. If they can be recycled ....
@@shimonsieskel8487 they would sell on ebay for sure !!! parts

As you mentioned, I’m so glad that you took these phones to ECO ATM
(not a paid advertisement) 😂
and recycled them! Such a “green”
thing to do!
I watched your video last night, and I recall you found 2 5c s but in this video I saw only 1 ! Does that mean that the other 5c is working and someone was able to use it for awhile?!
That thought would be nice 👍
They have gold in them
Greetings. This was so amazing. Thank you for passing knowledge/blessings forward. Be safe,healthy &blessed
Thank you 😊
I would've dug the gold out of them!
That was amazing ❤️👍👏 thanks for showing how easy it is to recycle them 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
It amazes me that the phone stores don't recycle these themselves, they could probably get a tax refund maybe? But good for you guys!
That's cool. Always wondered how they worked and now I know how to get rid of the old phones. Thank you
Thanks for watching
Ah. The days before we had to wear masks everywhere. Seems like so long ago lol
Awesome how you guys recycled. Makes my heart happy. Yay!!! ♻️❤️👊🤗

Thanks for watching 😊
I enjoyed going "mini golfing" with you 4. Thanks for sharing your family time.
I literally watched the whole videos. It was really fun to watch.
My uncle needs to do this....he has so many old phones he has had for years. He never got rid of any of them after upgraded.
Thank you for taking so much of your time to make sure they were recycled.
That is awesome that you are at least able to recycle some but I'm glad you got some money out of it to
Do you know how the precious metals are extracted? They use a huge amount of chemicals. They don't just scrape them off the components, just FYI
They used to pay way more for your phones... about the same as what you could get selling it online. Now their prices have dropped to nothing it seems.
My mom still uses my old 6S Plus iPhone and it works fine. I have the new 11 that I use and have my old 8 still, yet she wants to stick with the 6. 🤷🏼♀️😂
You probably could’ve sold them all online but I guess this was all about the experience so it’s all good! 😁
Hi Steve and Steph, what a great thing they have and seven dollars is good and you guys got to recycle those phones thank you for sharing 🌞
Good video people say u could do this u could do that , but rember you got them of dumpster & when did you ever hear being greedy is worth it & if it makes something out of nonthing y squeeze more see we wonder why there so much hate in world if get water free we expect juice free too.

I might be able to have a Christmas but I got life thank you 4 reading this
I see where people save up the phones till they have a good amount and put it for sale online and they get way more money for them. People buy the lots for parts. Maybe try that next time.
Great job man. You guys just helped mama Earth.
Thanks for watching 😊
Good luck, Hope you make some bucks...i found four working Android phones just recently in a bin, they all work, Just very scratched screens, Older "Galaxy S4" - Not worth much...jeez, that's a great machine, We haven't got those in Australia, maybe in big city - Sydney? Cheers 😊
Good score on your phones. I’m sure the machines will be in Australia soon. Thanks for watching 😊
These two were on extreme unboxing TV show- they are supposed to be professional flippers. Big time LOL 😂 😂
What is a professional flipper? 😂
Ohh Wow! I haven’t see this before. It’s first time for me. New phone machine. 👍😊🙌🏽🤟🏽📱
I was wondering what had become of those phones. Thanks for showing us how easy it is to use those machines. Time for me to take some old phones to be sold.
Molly K. What kind of old phones
Thanks for doing this video. I wanted to "see" how that machine worked. We have lots of phones that was found over the years for this machine . Would suggest one to two at a time, or space it out?
Try 2 at a time see how that goes
Old phones newer ones broken?
Hi Steve and Steph I didn't know about this 👍 TFS enjoy your evening ♥️💕 ♥️
Thanks for watching Sandra
@@StevenStephResaleKillers you are welcome ♥️

Thanks for sharing. Pretty simple process. I usually trade mine in.
Thanks for watching 😊
Did you remove the mascara video cause I loved it? Did you get in trouble or something cause I can't find it?
Thanks guys! You guys are awesome!
Thanks for watching
oh wow, I missed this one! I'm watching and waiting to see how much you get for them... And a coffee.
Glad you are back on I lost you guys and missed you.
That was cool I'll have to look at our Walmart and see if they have them here in Oklahoma
Thanks for watching 😊
Good environmental call guys...THUMBS UP!
They might have made more with Ebay ect, but they did a good thing by recycling! 😁
Much better then sitting in the landfills
You can make so much more selling them in lots on eBay or finding a local recycler that pays for phones to scrap.
That was very interesting. I had no idea. Thank you so much for sharing. xo
Our pleasure.. Thanks for watching
this is pretty cool, but you could make more money taking the phones apart, selling the housings to phone collectors and restorers and recycling the internal parts. Some people will even buy the whole phone, recycle the internals and use the externals.
