I B Recycling is a good place to bring your aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and glass bottles for CRV recycling. They are located in South Natomas, on Northgate Blvd., in the same plaza as Jack's Donut Wheel (in the back area). I've only been here twice and each experience was quick and simple.
First, make sure your plastic, aluminum, and glass are separated. Put each type of recyclable in its own grey garbage can. I B Recycling staff weighs the garbage cans and another worker writes down the weight and calculates the amount owed. After you sign on the sheet, she gives you cash for your recyclables! It's that simple!
They are open Monday through Saturday,
9:00am - 6:00pm, but they close for lunch from 12pm-1pm. Do not bring glass to be recycled after 5:00pm.
The staff was friendly and very helpful. I was initially referred here by another recycling center that had unreliable hours. So far, I B Recycling has been reliable with their stated hours. They were even open on Indigenous People's Day, when the banks were closed.
Tip - the mini Yakult plastic bottles (#61) receive the highest return, $5.01/lb! Also, the money they offer for glass bottles can be a little more than some other recycling centers. read more
