    Sanchez Recycling

    I used to go to another recycling center, but during my last few visits the staff seemed…read moreinattentive and even a bit rude. So I decided to try somewhere new and found Sanchez Recycling. From the moment I drove in, the experience was completely different. I was greeted right away and asked how they could help. I told them I had cans, and the employee directed me where to go, brought me a large basket, and let me know someone would assist me. Another staff member quickly helped, weighed my cans, gave me a receipt, and thanked me for coming. The woman in the payment area was also friendly and efficient. Overall, the whole process was smooth and pleasant. The facility is clean, the staff is helpful, and everything was easy to deal with. I'll definitely be coming here from now on!

    this is my go-to recycling center even though there are several others way closer to my house. the…read moreparking lot is really small (like your best bet is to back straight out of the gate) but their buckets are large, plentiful and in good shape. customer service is very nice. they have a handwashing station available for patrons and you can leave with cash instead of having to go to a second location (you know how like, some places are behind a market and then you have to redeem your receipt inside the market?). i feel like they offer good prices AND! they also collect a bunch of stuff. i was just turning in water bottles but the guy next to me turned in all these metal pipes and stuff.

    If you're from OC & want to get rid of hazardous materials (exclusions apply), this is the spot. As…read morean OC resident, you have the ability to remove some hazardous waste here, FREE. All you need is your ID to show proof of residency. I recently went through our old shed, which hasn't been cleaned in a few years. I managed to get rid of a few paint canisters, paint buckets, cleaning chemicals & more. I had about 2 medium sized boxes worth of items. I simply pulled up around opening time, popped open the trunk of my CRV, associates easily removed the items from my car, & was sent on my merry way. By far the easiest junk removal process I could ask for. We are in Spring & Spring Cleaning is upon us.
