Sometimes I've gone there and had to wait in line behind several other cars and it took awhile. I've never had to wait going to the Pittsburg dump!

After losing faith in Craig's List over the years, I had no idea what to do with my appliances and furnishings. I also wanted my items to "give back" to humanity. So, I called Bay Area Recycle. They were extremely helpful, informative and professional. They were unable to take my furnishings, but they referred me to someone who could help (Salvation Army and Bay Area Crisis Nursery). They WERE able to take my refrigerator for $35 cash, in a timely manner-- 2 days later! They removed the appliance from the storage unit, so I did not have to do any heavy lifting. Overall, an excellent experience. Why only 4 stars, and not 5? Well, they only accepted cash; and they only take electronics and appliances. However, I want to reiterate-- these folks are wonderful! I would use them again.

I needed to remove a Calif. King Mattress. I got 3 quotes: $150, $139 & $130. I thought those…read morequotes were outrageous. My friend told me to call Bay Area Recycle. They quoted me: $40 for curbside pick-up or $65 to come up one-flight of stairs and remove it from my apartment. 2 guys showed up on time and the price I signed for was the price I was quoted. Plus, they recycle as much of the mattress as they can whereas the other companies just take it to the Dump.

I had a terrible experience at CalWest Recycling. The owner was incredibly rude and unprofessional…read morefrom start to finish. Not only was he cursing at me, but he also called me a "dick," which is completely unacceptable behavior for someone running a business. To make matters worse, I was instructed to unload and move my own pallet of batteries for recycling. After I had already done the work, I was suddenly told I couldn't continue because I was wearing Birkenstocks. If that was actually a safety policy, one of the employees could have easily told me before I started unloading instead of waiting until I was finished. When I was told I had to wait in my car, I simply walked over to my vehicle, and the owner continued insulting me by calling me a "dick" as I left. Customer service and basic professionalism were completely absent. There are plenty of other recycling businesses that treat their customers with respect. I would definitely recommend taking your business elsewhere.

Called in for a price on clean copper and once I arrived to location they said owner wasn't there…read moreand they gave me a different price per lb on the copper. Man said he was going based off what was in the computer. After seeing the price difference I wanted to separate the copper to make a couple extra dollars since I had it mixed. I asked the man handling the transactions that told me a different price on the copper if he can lend me some clippers and he said he cant let me borrow them yet he had my ID and I was going to do it right in front of him. Words cant explain how frustrated I was. I ended up taking a loss at the end of the day and affected me mentally due to financial struggles.

My husband was there at 9 but the guy working there said that he gets there at 9 but it doesn't open until 10:30. WTF?!?!?! My husband was told he had to wait 1.5 hours before they would take his recyclables. That is the biggest bunch of crap I've ever heard. Needless to say, he took his business elsewhere (Delta Scrap & Salvage. see my 4 star review for them) I'm positive that his employers don't know that he's doing that. I hope they read this. My husband didn't want me to call the company and report the worker, so I'm taking this route to get the info out there.
