Hazardous materials waste
Rosmond P.

This location is open better hours than other locations. Of course it's dirty here. It's smelly and all but your only here for about 30 minutes. The weekend equals extra long lines.

Got $45.70 for this amount of plastic and aluminum cans
Jonathan S.

We come here frequently to recycle our plastic bottle and cans (mostly get from my parents and sister who don't live near a recycling center). The place is pretty busy and on Saturday mornings, you can expect a line getting in as there is limited parking. The lot itself is pretty dirty and you can find litter through the facility. Then again it is a recycling center, so it would probably be difficult to keep it clean. There is a strong odor of trash here, but I am guessing it is from the fermenting beer remnants in the beer bottles. This center in Fairfield appears to be busier than a couple others I have been in Vacaville, not sure if it is due to better prices or not. The workers here are all pretty nice. I had brought my 11 y/o here to help me sort the plastic and cans and while in line one of the workers offed all the kids a huge ice pop which was really nice of him! Overall it's a good place to go to recycle your recyclables.
