    Great place and the guy ruining this place is super duper awesome! He's quick and keeps this place clean.

    Workers closing early for a smoke and a board.

    See all

    Ask the Community - Next Generation Recycling

    Hi, does anyone know there hours during COVID?

    They completely vary. Try and get there as early as you can as they close about 2 hours earlier than pre-pandemic.

    Can I recycle plastic bags here? I don't need money, I just want to recycle them

    No, they don't. They just throw it in the trash can next to them.

    Santa Ana, Ca. One of the things I do to occupy my time…read moresince retirement is to strip clean, copper wire and brass products. I kind of like doing it and Global pays cash right after weigh in. I have settled on Global as my only recycle business because of horribly dishonest experiences with several other recycle establishments. One place even had rigged scales. Global offers up the latest competitive prices, and while on any given day you might find a higher price, it just might not be worth it. I've become familiar with the Global process, I know to use the wheeled containers for metals, NOT the cages. For small amounts, your 5 gal. Bucket is fine, they know how much it weighs, and they return it to you. After weigh in, take your ticket to the cashier window and slip it under the window with your drivers license. Get paid and leave. If it's your first time here you may have to wait several days for your money, after that you're good to go! The receipt you get breaks down the weight and price for each group of metals. It's not immediately understandable, but with a bit of study it makes sense.

    For about 7 years I have been coming here dropping off copper, usually best price hands down…read more Today was not one of those days, the boys working the line are incompetent, copper heat exchangers same ones I have been turning in for 7 years they decided today they were bronze and robbed me of several 100 dollars, their response.... You can pack it all back up.... Its was nearly 1000lb of copper they decided wasn't copper and knew I wouldn't want to load that all back up. Unreal criminal crooks. They are copper heat exchangers all day every day from pool heaters not bronze or brass or whatever else they wanna call it that day. Only reason they get 2 stars is they have a good track record but not today. Hopefully this is one bad day..... w one idiot working and they re train him properly. I'll try once more once I get another large load. I've sent countless coworkers here for copper recycling won't be doing that anymore. Shady business today shady business

    I got to this spot 8:55am (5mins before their posted opening time) and no employees to be seen :(…read more I waited until 9:10am then 2 workers pulled into the lot and strolled over. Ricardo, that opened the bin, saw i was waiting first and i asked him how much time he needed to get ready to open and he said '5 minutes and I'll help you out' so i waited for him before starting to stack my bottles. While he was setting up, I asked if it was okay if I gave them a case waters that they can keep for the heat and he said ok, took the waters, then walked away from the bin and stared a conversation with some towing guy nearby. The other guy (Angel i think? It was hard to understand his words) finally mustered the courage to come to work as well, and he put out the barrels and asked who was first and everyone pointed at me. I said I was ready--then he proceeded to help out the 2 other customers :( 'Angel' and 'Ricardo' were disappointing on this Friday Aug 22, 2025. I am no judge of their character but the odor they had, the slurring in their speech, and the speed at which they moved woulda had me guessing they were hungover or drugs :( I'm not even sure they typed in the numbers correctly--the way they both were standing there staring at the keyboard. Maybe the waters shoulda went to some homeless folks...

This location is very convenient, and since many communities don't offer recycling bins in the area, you can collect your $ back by ensuring you take your recyclables to the right place. Even though the lines can be a bit long at times, it always moves at a quick pace. There are definitely many regulars that return to this center, which speaks for the quality and efficiency of its services.

From the moment I drove in, the experience was completely different. I was greeted right away and asked how they could help.
