    Dishonest quoting and billing practices. Terrible customer service.

    My neighbors and I had missed a week of recycling pick-up in our neighborhood, so I figured I'd…read morejust let it collect for another week then take it elsewhere to get recycled with a little cash in return. Danny's Recycling Center was a sufficient option. The process was quick and fairly easy, though I did need a little bit of instruction since it was my first time here. Luckily there were plenty of staff to help out on a Saturday afternoon. Basically, once you enter, you park in the spaces on the right hand side. Then bring out your recycling and organize your items in large bins (the typical commercial round plastic trash cans) which are provided by staff. Next, they walk the bins to the machine which counts and crushes your recyclables (you can watch it go up the conveyor belt and come out the other side). Afterward, they give you a slip of paper with numbers printed on it, and you take this to the cashier windows across from the machinery where it is exchanged for cash and a receipt to sign (along with a customer copy). It was a very straightforward process. I was paid by weight (per pound) for my aluminum cans, but paid per item for my plastics, probably cuz I had less than 15 bottles. A stress free experience overall.

    I came here on a weekday afternoon and there were not many people here. There were several staff…read morecasually walking around and after speaking to one of them, I was finally getting helped. He grabbed a couple of bins over to my trunk and told me to unload. A few seconds later, another car drove in and the same worker immediately walked over to help him unload his cans instead. Maybe the guy was a frequent customer but damn, the differential treatment was hella obvious. The worker helped him unload everything and helped him carry everything to the weighing station. It all happened so quick that he even skipped me in line. When I was done unloading, I asked for some help carrying the bins over to the weighing stations (as I saw workers help other people), but I was just told to carry the glass bottle bins myself. Umm sure that would make sense if the other customers small in stature like me too but they were literally men who seemed big enough to not need the help. Regardless, they're nicer if you know Spanish. They're friendlier if you've buddied up with them before. Ironically the workers make it seem like some boy's club catering to their own yet their bosses are Asian. It's too much of a hassle dealing with their behavior that I'd much rather recycle elsewhere next time.

    Always a lovely trip that makes you feel good!…read more My daughter and I have been coming here for close to 15 years now. We are Sunnyvale residents, I have always felt so lucky to have such an clean and organized recycle center close by. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. They always explain the rates and count everything with you to ensure you understand the value of your recycled goods. As a Girl Scout troop leader/volunteer mom for 8 years; they were always so help and obliging to my request for an annual tour of the center with the girls - to earn their recycle & be green badge It's beyond me why anyone would have a negative experience or bad review - this place is literally paradise of the recycle world. Perhaps they have never been to the others in the Bay Area. Bonus: if you are a Sunnyvale or Mountain View resident you can pick up free wood chips and compost dirt for your garden. They provide two gallons for free per week with proof of residency.

    Santa Clara County's official .gov website is telling SCC residents that this is a station that…read morewill help you with recyclables. Upon visiting, the clerks will tell you they only serve specifically Sunnyvale residents and no one else. 1. Go to https://hhw.sccgov.org/home 2. Search for "Drop-Off Locations" 3. Click on "Battery and Fluorescent Bulb Drop-Off Locations" as an example 4. It will bring you to a map with recyclable location icons and lists SMaRT Station Sunnyvale as an eligible place WITHOUT mentioning any residency restrictions. Also, good luck trying to reach anyone by phone. I spent a good 15 minutes calling multiple times but to no avail. No one is accepting Fluorescent Bulb recycling anymore it seems. Home Depot won't take it, neither will Lowe's. Also the map is incredibly outdated, there's a lot of hardware stores listed like Ace Hardware that closed up shop many years ago. If people can't find out a way to properly recycle these materials it just increases the likelihood they will trash it and thus harming our environment and overall community. Santa Clara County and city of Sunnyvale need to figure this out.
