Glass does not need to be separated by color, but glass, plastic, and aluminum should all be separated prior to bringing your cans in for weighing. The staff are polite and if you are organized prior to arriving, you can be on and out in a matter of minutes. Payment is in cash and you sign for what you receive. Easy peasy.

The employees are friendly. The lines move quickly & efficiently. After the weighing of the materials, one receives their cash refund in the office. Consumers pay California Redemption Value (CRV) when they purchase beverages from a retailer. The beverage container recycling program was created in 1986. Refunds are now by weight of the materials, instead of by the size of a container, as the Assembly Bill originally called for. The program includes aluminum cans and glass & plastic bottles. Check the label to see if a container is eligible for CRV, as some beverage containers are not eligible (milk, food, wine, spirits, etc.). The container will say CA Redemption Value, California Cash Refund, CA CRV or CA Cash Refund. A-1 Metals also sells salvaged used auto parts.

Sine then, the prices hav steadily increased. I understand that However, on THIS trip, there was a huge lack of supervision by at the property. One gal at the gate, a few guys on equipment. That's it. I saw a dishwasher, tires and concrete in the general trash dump, construction wood in the green waste, a kid about seven, running around playing in the dump area, around his dad's truck... ( a customer, not employee). Hey, it's not my place. Not my rules. BUT, it isn't run as tight and organized as it used to be. Makes me wonder about their hazardous waste protocols, that's all.

The same booth dude was given several 1-star reviews over the course of 4 years. Also, THERE IS NO PHONE NUMBER to call. The 805-466 number is only a recording that doesn't accept messages. There is no active phone # listed on their website that accepts calls either. In order to reach anyone, the website advises to email them. LOLOLOL!!! A chat is available, but it's a bot. It's programmed to say it's not a bot, but - duh. It's totally obvious. I wish you luck if you need to deal with this "trashy" company.

Before they used to put recyclables on the conveyor belt so the exact amount was visible and reflected in the return via receipt. Now they use one of crappy industrial weights, write down the alleged amount on a piece of paper and you get what you get. I took in an amount that had been accumulating for almost a year. Would have amounted to 250-300 dollars via their prior process. Got 185 bucks. Don't waste your time. This place is no longer any better than the rest and they'll try to chisel you.
