How Does Walmart Drop-Off Work in Phoenix?

1
Open DVDWalmart.com, choose Start My Order and pick the media types in your box.
2
During checkout, select your Walmart store, for example 857 N Dobson Rd in Mesa or 5605 W Northern Ave in Glendale.
3
Print the order papers and follow the packing checklist.
4
Hand the box to the Walmart photo counter.
5
Collect the finished copies at the same Walmart.

The same Walmart order can include VHS and other videotapes, 8mm and Super 8 film, photos, slides and negatives.

Plan the trip so the box goes straight in

The Library of Congress guidance for audio-visual media calls for cool storage, no warmer than room temperature, and away from environmental extremes. In Phoenix, that means carrying the box into the store with you rather than leaving it in a parked car between errands.
