A free city of Houston run recycling center where you can recycle your e-waste for free. The first…read moretime I did it they ask for an ID to check if I was a resident of Houston, but the second time they did not ask for as ID and proceeded to take my e-waste box from the trunk. They were really respectful to my vehicle, you just stay in the car and then you just drive off. It feels nice to do the right thing for disposing e-waste the right way.

Thankful the city has this service for us to drop off recycling…read more They want you to wear your mask when driving through and then 1/2 the times I go they take my temperature but the other 1/2 they don't. I think it depends who is working that day. They will take everything out of my trunk and THEN take my temperature... it kind of doesn't make sense. What would they have done if after taking my recycling out, my temp is high? Would they then grab it all from the bins and put it back in my car? Why not just let me keep my window closed the whole time that way we just don't make contact at all? Minus 1 star for hours. 8-5 Monday to Saturday basically means I can only make on Saturdays if I don't have to work that Saturday. Would be nice if they'd open a bit earlier in the morning or have bins outside to drop of basic recycling items like plastic and cans.

Then when they showed up who ever was working the route left a mess and actually did not pick up trash. Reported it and no one ever showed or called back. All my neighbors trash and mine on the ground . Extremely dissapointing and upset with all the mess they left

After reading this review…read more(http://www.yelp.com/biz/recyclexpress-houston#hrid:pTPRUS6wyJpHxUc-0vusfA) that incorrectly chastises Houston for not having a curbside recycling program, I decided that I should write a review for what is possibly one of the best curbside recycling programs in Texas. For the past 10 to 12 years, we have been putting out our little green bin full of 1-5 plastics, newspapers, and glass bottles out on the curb every other week. And faithfully, a big truck comes up our curb, and two men depart from either side of the rear, and pick up our bins and take our recyclables. It runs like clockwork. This year, 2009, we were upgraded to the large rolling bins, that are the same size as our regular trashcans. The upgraded cans came with an upgraded recycle-pickup-truck; I noticed that the side of the big green vehicle had the words "HYDRAULIC/HYBRID" ! On top of running like clockwork, there is an incentive program for recycling. City of Houston has partnered with www.recyclebank.com, so now, every time you put out green bin, the truck scans it, and you get points added to your account automatically. The points are redeemable for coupons, magazines, and even gift cards to stores like iTunes, Barnes and Nobles, and Amazon.com. If by some anomaly the City of Houston has decided that you are not worthy of a curbside pick up these past 12 years... you should get some kind of petition going in your neighborhood and ASK FOR IT! However, considering that we've been enjoying the curbside pickup for well over 10 years, I'm guessing that maybe those who don't have it don't actually live in Houston. I'm sorry, but if you decide you're too good for the city and live in Sugar Land, Conroe, Cy-Fair, the Woodlands, or even West University or Bellaire, then DON'T COMPLAIN about the city services. Long live the Houston Curbside Recycling Program!

I phoned ahead to make sure they took the kind of major, heavy appliances I had. They did, I went…read moreover, the oven and refrigerator that my nephew and I wrestled into the truck were adroitly yanked out with care (no scraping across my truck bed) by just one (1) of their workers and hoisted onto a scale. A few extra bucks in my pocket later and we were off to the nearby Waffle House. No muss, no fuss, we got paid a little to deliver it ourselves instead of paying a lot for someone to cart it away, and everyone we met at Spring Scrap Metal Recycling was enthusiastic and kind. 5 Stars all the way!

Recycle! It's the mantra in this household…read more We recycle everything - and I mean everything possible. To have a scrap metal recycler so close to home is an added bonus. Yes, you will receive some cash for your metal (don't expect the proverbial gold mine, though). And you're helping a local business - plus you're reducing the volume of waste that ends up in landfills. Always very friendly staff here. Parking is adequate, since you're really not here for very long - they're very quick to take your metal, weigh it and pay you a set price per pound. Exiting back onto Kuykendahl (especially if you're heading south) can be a challenge, though. Keep that in mind when you're ready to leave.
