11 Ways to Turn Your Old Junk into Cash

10) Deposit Old Phones and Electronics

Many shopping malls now have kiosks when people can deposit old phones and electronics for instant cash. The system will ask you to grade the item in terms of condition, brand, model and data storage. It will then examine the device once deposited and offer a cash amount based on the results. While these kiosks don’t typically pay very much, it is a great way to make a few bucks off that old brick iPhone 4 that’s been sitting around for four years. Kiosks will usually accept iPods and Android devices as well. If you do not have a kiosk nearby, then check online for electronic recycling sites that offer the same services.
