First time I got $ 16.00 dollars for the 2 bags without crusing the plastic watter bottles. Today my Second time I took the same 2 Big Green Bags with all plastic bottles and I crushed them to get more money and I tool on the side like 100 or more crushed soda cans aluminium and I got only $ 12.00. Big Rip Off , the first time a lady was there and this time a guy. What a big difference, I took way more plus the soda cans and I got way less. I think it is easy for these dishonest employees to rip people off.

The conversion rates are posted, and there's plenty of netted containers to store your recyclables in. The employee was very kind, patient, and at the end, I received $5, even though my total was about 30 cents less, to my memory. Service is quick, as there isn't really much of a wait in line. Before you receive your compensation in cash, you sign an itemized receipt.

Most of the patrons are bringing in aluminum cans and glass, but they also accept any raw materials with a drivers license. The money is paid out via atm or by an employee, so it's convenient. I've had a 14' aluminum pergola, which I never installed, so I chopped it up in 5' pieces and loaded everything into my SUV. It took me two trips, and i needed to load everything onto metal carts, and the friendly employees assisted me weight the products. Overall, I'm satisfied. I cleared out the scrap from my yard, have less cluster, and recycled a product for a better environment.

They pay the most of any recycling center around, you can even grab the coupon online to get even more money. You have to sort it yourself in the rolling carts they provide, but if you don't sort it right they will help you and correct it. They will also sort your metal for you depending on what type it is. They take basically everything and you walk away with $$$, plus recycling is good for Earth!

When I'm was a kid, there was a certain entertainment value to taking a trip "to the dump." 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 recycle catalytic converters professionally, this is the place to sell about as high up the…read moreconverter food chain without decanning 2000+ converters yourself into 55gal drums so you can get a high percentage of the recovered metal value. I don't think they buy from individuals or shady sources, but as a licensed auto repair dealer I had quite a collection built over the years. The guys from Legend came out within a few days of calling, laid out and graded 200+ converters, and paid a competitive price that day- SWEET! If you have a lot of 10+ converters, or if you're a repair or exhaust shop that's not sure you're getting the most from your converter scrap, give Legend a call to come out and bid on your lot. You might have to initially contact the main east coast business office from their website, but it's worth it!
