Finally, a place that accepts smoke alarms. None of the other hazardous waste facilities in Orange…read moreCounty accepts them. Even the main facility on Oak Canyon says, "Send them back to the manufacturer." Like that's going to happen. I wonder how many people, when they heard that, just plopped their old alarms in the trash. Well, I had held on to mine for several years, hoping that the hazardous waste folks would change their minds, to no avail. Then a postcard arrived from our trash company, CR&R listing nine hazardous waste drop offs, with MDS being the only one to accept smoke alarms. I did a Google map and headed on down. The receptionist was friendly and helpful and took those old alarms right away. Kudos to MDS for being willing to accept these items, especially since MDS is a commercial recycler. Their willingness to deal with Joe Public Small Fry is appreciated. And did I mention there was no charge?

Worst customer service ever. Unprofessional. The secretary had told us one thing but when the…read moreservice person came he only wanted to pick up. I was given a home number Mr. Jim who was gitbfrustrstes as I was telling him the issue, he called me a bitch and hung up. I then call the main off where I was put on hold for 14 minutes before I was transferred to another person and I was put in hold for another 10 mons and when I was finally transferred to the person in charge, she cut me off mid sentences, asked me to shut up and let her speak. And continued with " how would you like me to fix the issue " I do not work at this company. How would i know how to solve the issue when. Unprofessionalism at its finest because she the laughed and hung up. Never again will even attempt to waste my time with this company. Horrible attitude.

Took my old TV and chucked it out to who knows where, for free, so they did what they said they'd…read moredo. But let's talk about that signage out front. The place talks about some sort of "Nerd Candy" shop or something similar, which makes you think it's the business next door... but it's not. So you go in and ask about the "Nerd Candy", and if they sell candy at the tech recycling shop, but... it's just the name of their company. Then you walk back out the door and see that the same company has TWO different signs out front for TWO company names, but it's both in the same doorway and building. Finally, there's a sign that says "drop offs, use the back entrance" but this makes it sound like if you have an appointment to drop something off and leave with no explanation, you should use the back entrance, and as I had no appointment, I used the front entrance, which I got told to use the back entrance for. Better wording, like "if you have an appointment, use this entrance, if you don't, use the back" would make far more sense, but this is also a place that calls itself a brand name that sounds exactly like a candy shop at the same time as it sounds like a recycling shop. But the actual job they do, they did immaculately. No complaints there.

There are many recycling centers in West LA, but most of them only take metal cans. If you have…read morelarger and heavier, metal items, it can be difficult to find a place to recycle them. I had an old Sears sewing machine that weighs a ton - likely because it was built like a tank, all metal and with heavy metal parts! It's hard to find a place within 10 miles that would take it! I found Jake's number on yelp and I called around 7:30 one evening, and to my surprise, he personally answered the phone! How rare is that these days! I arranged a time with him, and dropped off several heavy metal items. It was easy. He also took a lot of E waste items, such as power bars, extension, cords, etc., etc. He operates out of his residence, and the location in Westchester is very convenient for people who live on the west side. Compared to the large metal recycling facilities, where you may have to drive through piles of trash or meander through a wasteland, I feel his location is easier and safer for me! I'm very happy to have found his service, and I would definitely recommended to people on the west side.
