What I don't like is that every time I've gone, the payout price is ALWAYS lower than advertised. The excuse of 'fluctuating market prices' can be true, but amazingly always in their favour. The 'mixed metal' rates are over-compensated in their favour - you could hand them something that's clearly 99% gold (for an extreme example), but if it has so much as a tiny metal screw in it, the whole thing becomes about the same worth as all-metal. Their measured weights are also light. For bulk steel, the printout weight was actually lower than the scale readout (now that's brazen!) And for a specific metal type (ex. purely alum cans), I pre-weighed my load (in a large cardboard box) with 2 separate (and accurate) digital scales (both were the same) - CFT's weighed amount was about 4 kilos light, and it's not like the box they were in weighed anywhere close to that! They skim just low enough to make it look like some kind of margin of error. It's dirty and they need to be legally called out on it!

TLDR: Needed to get rid of a non-functional mini refrigerator. Dropped it off here. Glad this…read moreservice exists. So here in Ottawa, you can't just throw out refrigerators with your regular garbage, not even mini ones. I was looking for a place to offload our broken mini fridge and came across Aim Recycling. I emailed them to ask them the process and they said just bring it to any of their locations during business hours. My husband and I went on a Saturday morning. We parked and he went into the office to ask them where to drop it off. So there's a big dump in the back and you literally drive back there, add your stuff to the dumpster and drive off. Easy peasy. They recycle metals, so they don't take just anything, only items with metals they can recycle. So happy to get rid of our broken mini fridge, lol. (82)

I've had an old PC, monitor, and printer laying around my house for months, waiting for one of…read morethose special days where you can drop off your old electronics for recycling. I heard about this place in the media recently and decided to check it out. According to their web site, there are 3 locations, and this one is the closest to my home, so we stopped by on Friday. What's really great is that they have a drive-thru to drop your stuff off! This was particularly convenient since it was raining. To get to the drive-thru, go in the right entrance and once you're through the gate, turn left and into the building. There's also a weigh station, which I have to assume is for really big loads of scrap metal. Not only is it nice to have a place that will accept your old electronics year round, but they pay you for it! For my effort, I made a whopping $4.80. You're not going to get rich from it, but certainly beats having to keep the junk around your house or pay someone to take it away because you can't throw it out with the regular trash. Be sure to check out their web site to see the full list of items that they accept, and the prices they pay for each.
