This place deserves 5 stars just by existing!!!!…read more While there are many recycling centers all over the city, most of them only take plastics and soda cans; very few of them take metals. I called around and luckily one of the plastic recycling centers told me about them. I called in advance to check if they'd take the steel bars I had and a real person answered the phone on first ring!! That is a rarity in today's world. She was very helpful and answered all my questions. The next day I came - took me some time to get here but once I got here they gave me clear instructions on what to do. They weighed my car before and after I unloaded the metals; their system used the difference to calculate the money they would pay and gave me a ticket to go get the money from the cashier. I was super impressed by their streamlined process! Inside the dump yard everyone was helpful and assisted me. The entire thing took only a few minutes. But here's the REAL lesson I learned at this place : modern humans (we, that is) create so much trash - mounts of paper boxes, piles of metals, mountains of used auto parts... it was shockingly eye opening to see how much they had collected!!! After seeing this place, there's no excuse that we must reduce, reuse, and recycle !!!

I've been trying to be better and recycle everything, treating this Earth well. Once a month, I like bringing my plastics and getting a little cash money for them. I usually fill a big black bag and it's around $15. On this last trip at Dejas, they could tell it was my friend and I's first time at the location and helped us a bit with our sorting. They were patient and helpful! Plus when our total was $18 and some change they just gave us a $20 as a first time customer bonus! So unnecessary but kind! We parked along the street as we knew it would be a quick trip in & out. It's located in a clear spot though and identified more clearly than similar places. We'll definitely be doing out recycling here from now on! It's way cleaner than other spots and such a better experience overall.
