Since this is only recycling business I use, I cannot compare them. But obviously, I am satisfied…read more On Saturdays they may be really busy but they are quick and just go about their business of unloading your car and giving you a receipt. In addition to pop bottles and cans, I want to recycle wine bottles and don't care that they do not pay for those. I believe they were once set up to allow customers to contribute their pay-outs to our son's Boy Scout troop. Maybe they still do that with other non-profits. I hope they recycle cardboard whether they pay or not. I don't want it to go to the landfill.

My mother-in-law (who limps) and my sister-in-law (who is 12) goes with her to help her out and this last time really upset my mother in law. She had told me that one of the ladies was refusing to give her a basket to help my mother in law. They weren't letting my sister in law grab a basket for my mother in law and they didn't know why. Then they began to give them problems about them not being able to understand and respond in Spanish. Then second day the same lady was on cashier and pointed to my mother in law and said she didn't want her there. Neither my mother in law and my sister-in-law believed they had absolutely no reason to be treated like that when they hadn't done anything.

Happy Earth Day, 2026!…read more Did you know that humans produce over 460 million metric tons of plastic every year? After learning this, the first thought that came to my mind was 'This is a huge number! How much actually is this?' Consider this: This is more weight than the weight of the Eiffel Tower (Paris), Golden Gate Bridge (San Francisco), Brooklyn Bridge (New York), Empire State Building (New York), Statue of Liberty (New York), Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italy), Great Pyramid of Giza (Egypt), Burj Khalifa (Dubai), Space Needle (Seattle), Tokyo Skytree (Japan), The Pentagon (Virginia), and the Great Wall of China, ALL COMBINED, TIMES SEVEN! That's A LOT of plastic! Worse yet, we produce this amount of plastic EVERY year, and studies predict that it takes approximately 450 years for a plastic bottle to decompose in a landfill. That means that the plastic bottle that you throw in the trash will still be there for approximately 18 generations of your descendants after you. If you don't recycle, you are literally trashing our planet for your own offspring! And, Earth is the only planet that we know of that is capable of supporting life. OK, I'll get off my soapbox now. Aside from trying to be a good citizen of planet Earth, I also recycle because I could always use some extra cash. I can usually pocket around $20 for every visit I make here, which really helps because I am certainly not a rich man. This particular location is a great option for recycling, here at "Benites Recycling," located just behind Bob's Market (Lancaster, California). I've been to this location several times. The money you receive by recycling here is similar to what you will receive at other nearby recycling centers. There are three things I like about this location in particular, as follows: (1) they typically do not require you to show your I.D. like they do at some other locations; (2) they use lightweight recycling bins, so they can quickly obtain an accurate weight of your recycling without having to tare the weight of the bins; and (3) the wait here is usually minimal because there are usually less people here than at some of the other recycling centers I have gone to. Although I believe the folks here are honest, the only thing I don't like about this location is how the actual recycling weight is difficult for the customer to see unless the customer walks around the scale and stands next to the employee reading the weight. Aside from this one drawback, I do like coming here for the reasons mentioned above. I'll definitely return to this location in the future. If you don't recycle here, please recycle somewhere.

It's nice to get a little extra cash, right? This particular location is a great option for recycling, here at the "A.V. Recycling Center" (Lancaster, California). I've been to this location several times. It's usually a pretty busy place, usually with a few other folks recycling here as well. Even though it can be a little busy, three of the things I like about this location are: (1) they typically do not require you to show your I.D. like they do at some other locations, (2) they are careful to weigh your items and then tare the weight of the bins for an accurate measurement, and (3) the weight and calculation are visible to the customer, to give the customer confidence in the honesty of the men who work here. As I mentioned earlier, it's a little busy here, but there are a few good reasons to recycle here instead of recycling at another location. I'll definitely return to this location in the future. If you don't recycle here, please recycle somewhere.
