You can't miss this place! Located in Depew, it boasts a barn-like facade and a sizeable parking lot. Lots of spaces up front so taking your bottles and cans in is made even easier. Inside, it's eclectically decorated and full of fun knick-knacks, so you'll have plenty to look at while you wait. And the most surprising thing: it is pristinely clean! No nasty smells or gross sights. The employees here are top-notch, too. They are very kind and accommodating -- if you need any help bringing your cans in, they'll give you a hand. And they're super fast-moving as well. I could never keep the numbers straight in my head, so I give them props for being so good at mental math! If you find yourself with a bunch of bottles and cans to trade in for some nice cash, I'd highly suggest coming to Bud's Bottle Barn. You can't beat the service!

I'm happy to find this bottle return location! The staff was friendly and super fast at sorting…read more Just go in and pour your cans and bottles onto the table, then the staff works their magic to sort and count everything. They make it very easy. This is so much more convenient than the machines at the grocery stores! It does have that strong stale-beer smell but that is probably inevitable, and it feels pretty clean inside and is well-lit. The parking lot is small and not well marked (I'm not sure where the spaces are intended to be?) but easy to access.

It smells clean inside, which is a big time switch from anywhere I've ever returned my empty bottles & cans. The owner was very nice . It only took about 2 minutes to count out all of my empties & give me the $$. This definitely beats going to Tops & waiting in the vestibule for an hour, waiting for a machine to open up, since that old man is there with his 2 shopping carts full of empties, meanwhile 3 machines aren't even working & by the time you finally make to the machine, it's FULL & u have to wait 20 minutes to get an employee to empty it. Nevermind all the bees in those things in the summertime. I'll pass ! From now on, I'm coming here.

This time I had LOTS so I thought I'd give it a try. This business is unusual in that the business operates out of the building's side entrance. Parking is adequate, especially since the turn over rate here is surprising. I was met at the door by two very friendly employees who explained how this system works. They do everything. Just hand them the bags and stand back. The system operates so quickly that I was just barely able to keep up bringing bags in. The system is totally automated. Once the workers empty the bags into the sorting area everything is automatic. It's really amazing to watch as the bottles and cans are arranged and processed to a conveyor belt that takes them away. Everything is counted by computer. When finished, you're given a ticket that you take to a window where you are paid. Start to finish, 779 bottles and cans were processed in 6 minutes including getting paid I will never go anywhere else again.

I mentioned to the staff that I couldn't stay long, as I was on my lunch break from my job at the squirrel taxidermy business down the road. The handsome young man behind the counter counted all of the cans in under 8 minutes. Typically a wealthy aristocrat such as myself, would not bother wasting time returning worthless hunks of aluminum. However, I donated 99% of the proceeds to the Max A. Krakowiak House for the Poor. The other 1% I spent on googly eyes and macaroni noodles for my stuffed squirrels. I will be sure to spread the word about this fine establishment with my extensive business network (however many of these individuals are not nearly as wealthy as myself). P.S. Thank you for letting me borrow the shower and toilet paper (they have 3-ply!!!!) as I was extra sweaty from saving a kitten from a tree (the tree was 660 ft tall).
