    The Recycling Depot - Binford vs the recycling depot‍

    The Recycling Depot

    I Came Here On Purpose...and They Blew It!…read more With gas pushing $6 per gallon, I decided to explore a closer scrap yard option instead of driving all the way to Kent. So I came to The Recycling Depot deliberately -- on purpose -- to compare their prices against other yards in the Seattle area. I left knowing one thing for certain: they don't know what fair pricing looks like. They paid me $0.03/lb for steel. That's right -- three cents. My load was 700 lbs of steel, and they handed me $21.00 for it. That same steel would've been worth around $42 elsewhere (or more depending on the yard). Add in stainless, aluminum, and brass, and my total ticket came to $31.25. Laughable. For comparison, Binford Metal Recycling in Kent would've paid me double on steel alone. That's $21 straight out of my pocket they basically stole -- and that's just one metal. The difference on a full load like mine? Easily $50-$60. Real money. Real loss. And the worst part? No transparency. No explanation. Just: weighed it, printed it, paid you, next. If you don't know scrap prices, you'll get taken. If you do, you'll never return. They failed the test. I came prepared, and they got exposed. I won't be back -- and neither should you!

    the service and personnel weren't very welcoming. also, the scrap pricing they paid out was half…read moreof what the day's market value was. I don't know how they found their pricing, but I reviewed the receipt and looked up the pricing and they paid 1/2 of what they should have. i still walked away with $100, but it should have been $250 after I looked up the pricing for each metal. it was convenient that they're open 7 days a week. need to work on their customer service and being more accountable and fair.

I wanted to get an extra wireless keyboard and mouse so I could have one at work and one at home and wouldn't have to carry them around. I asked about them in the store and was led to a plastic box that was filled with identical wireless keyboard mouse combos. I picked one out and asked where the chip was. This should have tipped off the clerk that I was not tech savvy. As I suspect many of there customers are not. She told me the toggle was under the mouse. I got the set home and did not see a toggle under the mouse (latter I found out she was saying dongle). I looked in the battery chambers of both the keyboard and mouse and did not see it. I called the them and was told to check the battery chambers of both the keyboard and mouse and once again I didn't see it. I was told that this would be a once in a lifetime that a chip was not with the keyboard. I brought the unit in and we looked in the keyboard battery area next. Then we looked we looked at the mouse and they pointed out a built in dongle compartment in the battery chamber of the mouse. I was never told there could be a built in compartment when I was in the store or later on the phone. I have since find some YouTube videos that explain where to find the dongle. This tells me I'm not that only one to have trouble finding it.

Because I was only dropping off a dresser I was charged a flat fee of $36. Once I paid, I let the gentleman know I had not been here before and he explained me what color line to follow and then I would back up and trash my dresser. We followed the red color line as instructed and the wait time was minimal. The area to drop off the trash was being "cleaned" on my ur arrival as they had machines compacting the trash. There are no marked areas to back up and it's all self guided. But backing in was fairly easy.

I've never lived in an area where such a place is accessible to the general public. We came here because my daughter/FutureSIL wanted to dispose of some old radiator fluid that wasn't needed. It's a very interesting set-up, one where I could watch. You first drive in, and then stop next to a toll booth type of set-up. An employee will then ask the disposable material. She then directed us to follow one of 4 lines in the road (yellow, blue, red, green) until we got to a big garage area. Another helper then told us where to dump the fluid. And then we were on our way. There's a lot of things that the facility doesn't accept, including tires and electronic, tvs, and computers. But it does accept mattresses, mercury products, pesticides, and a variety of household chemicals. I was told later that it can get really backed up. There is an electronic sign showing the current wait times along with that for the two other stations (houghton and renton)...didn't see it on-line however, which I think would be useful.
