After Altadena Recycling closed, I felt like I had no choice but to go to Ponce Recycling…read more Unfortunately, I won't be going back there anytime soon. I always had a feeling I wasn't getting paid fairly, but since I don't know much about recycling rates, I wasn't sure. A friend recommended FLOREZ Recycling in Irwindale, and wow -- my gut feeling was right all along! I received so much more money for my bottles and cans compared to before. FLOREZ Recycling is a small family-owned business, and they were incredibly kind and helpful. They even helped me organize my bottles, which I truly appreciated. They felt honest, fair, and welcoming. I now combine my recycling trips with my Costco shopping, which makes it super convenient. The location can be a little difficult to find at first because it's located in the alley behind the main buildings, but it is absolutely worth it.

Donna was quick to respond and is such a genuinely lovely person. She is environmentally conscious.

My wife and I recycle aluminum cans. Our SUV holds 8 large trash bags full. Typically, that will…read moreget us between $80 and $100. We took 8 bags to Sunset Recycling today, and those 8 bags filled 6 of their recycling baskets. The cashier handed me a $1, a $5, and 4 bills I thought were $20s. $86 was about what I was expecting. When I got home, I realized they were actually only $10 bills. We went back to the center and asked to see our receipt. It said we had 27 pounds worth of aluminum. I questioned if that seemed right for 6 baskets full. The guy claimed it was. That would be less than 5 pounds per basket. I watched him weigh the next customers baskets, and each was 8-10 pounds. So, what do we think happened? Because the parking next to the center was full, we parked behind the Costco instead. We filled 6 of their recycling baskets with cans, plus a basket with a little bit of plastic and one with an insignificant amount of glass - that's 8 baskets total. We dragged over 4 of the baskets, then went back and grabbed the other 4. We think they took in a few of the first set of baskets we dragged over without weighing them first, then weighed the second set of baskets while we stood there. There is no way for us to prove that is what happened, but it seems like the logical conclusion. How can I be so sure 27 pounds is way too light? We had another 8 bags of cans to recycle. Immediately after, we took them to a competitor down the street. Those 8 bags of cans weighed in at just under 50 pounds for $85. So, yeah, we are 100% sure they ripped us off.
