Plus this guy is not nice at all. I recommend another recycling place instead on Via Campo close to the Best Buy. They are much nicer and much quicker too. Another thing is this place many times has homeless people recycling their cans and I don't want to be anywhere near those bums.

My dad…read morewould load up the truck with old junk and off we would go into the foothills where, for a nominal fee, you could push all the crap out of your truck onto the ground... all while flocks of seagulls and crows poked through the trash for food while giant bulldozers and other cool machinery pushed the huge piles of stuff around. Fast forward 35 years, and now I am the dad with a big truckload of broken flooring and wall plaster that needs to go somewhere. Turns out the dump I went to as a kid is now all filled up, and features a golf course atop all those piles of trash buried beneath. So, with a huge mess on my hands, I started calling around to see where I could legally get rid of some stuff. I called this MRF, and they actually answered their phone. Since this simple move seems to be a rarity in the local industry, I ended up going there. I arrived at the facility, pulled my truck into the vehicle scale, and approached the window. COVID rules play here, but with the dust and god knows what blowing around, it's a good idea to mask up anyway. The place also requires patrons to wear safety vests, and they sell them for about five bucks if you don't have one. Note well: it ain't cheap. All sorts of rules, regulations, taxes, fees and the like have made this gig practically a Ben Franklin cost per trip. But I suppose it's better than trying to dump it illegally or hassling the "two scoops at a time" routine in your weekly trash pick up. They also did not weigh my truck on the way out, so I guess they just use a tare weight in my make and model. Who knows? Regardless, I made two trips here and got rid of most of the junk I needed to.

If you don't have one they sell it for like $4-5 dollars each one. So easy! And such a clean site for the fact that it's a place you dump trash! Would come back! Oh and they always answer the phone and are very nice
