SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) -- Sioux Falls has its first Walmart Pickup Tower.

The 18-foot-tall bright orange tower is located at the northside store.

Manager Scott Becker says you order something online from Walmart and you pick it up at the big tower using a special code.

"It can hold up to 297 packages, anything up to the size of a small microwave."

It's like a giant vending machine with a sliding door that opens up and your merchandise comes out on a tray.

"It's a pretty impressive piece of machinery..." says Becker and he invites everyone out to his store to take a look. He predicts that the tower will get real busy during the Christmas shopping season.

Walmart has been putting these towers in hundreds of stores nationwide. There's a tower in Spearfish, but this is the first in Sioux Falls.
