If I could give them ZERO stars I would! We have utilized their shredding service for a while…read morenow. So why one star if we've been doing business for a while? Because they apparently don't use modern technology like calendars and phones. All is great as long as you don't need them to pick up the full bin. If you do, be prepared to get ghosted on the appointed day/time. Not just once but over and over again. This is where a calendar would come in really handy! They NEVER call you to tell you the schedule changed, or the driver is late or give you what ever (likely flimsy) excuse they have for not showing up. They must not have reliable phones! I would recommend this company to no one who needs reliable service. Look elsewhere.

I suppose now is as good a time as any to reveal I've begun an internship at a nonprofit group…read moredowntown; I was offered the position because I'm friends with the person who runs the office for the chairman, my friend "L". L knows that with my B.A. in Political Science, paired with a keen understanding of politics, and my ability to get things done, I should be going places if I stick with it. What do I do exactly? Basically, I'm L's bitch. It's "The Devil Wears Prada", except instead of being sent to glamorous boutiques and tony restaurants, I'm sent to such exotic locales as the Chuy's off Barton Springs and the downtown post office to buy stamp coils. Here's where Balcones Recycling comes into play. Since everyone's so busy on a day-to-day basis, it appears that the cans of La Croix and bottles of Dublin Dr. Pepper in our kitchen have been accumulating I'd say, in a rough estimate, since April of Way Too Long Ago. Additionally, there was more untouched paper recycling in both the kitchen and the copy room than I believe there was actual paper stock. Apparently, the attorney in our office was about to lose his shiat because of the mess, and I was assigned the task of getting rid of the junk. This is absolutely not a problem. When I get going on deep cleaning and/or organizational kicks, I get on a roll and I won't stop until everything is perfect; my OCD is a powerful force I only unleash to do good. I wanted the crap out ASAP myself. I found a website online that listed nearby recycling centers, and while a tad confusing about who accepted what items, I figured Balcones would be my best shot. I asked L if they paid for cans, and she said she wasn't sure but if they did, I could keep the money as a tip. All 75 cents of it, I was guessing. Score. The drive into East Austin always makes me nervous, and this time was no exception. I found the location with ease, but all the parking spaces were full. Large 18-wheelers are constantly moving and out, and there is no signage about where one would drop off recyclables. I "creatively" parked and popped inside the office, where a friendly girl behind the desk explained there is a white dumpster just across the way that I could toss everything into. I thanked her, even though I was bummed I wouldn't be paid for my monstrous bag of cans. Nervously, I threw everything away as I prayed Kar would not be crushed by those damn trucks driving everywhere. The dumpster said "paper and cardboard only", so I double checked with the nearest guy standing around and he said I could go ahead and toss the cans in, too. Works for me As I left by narrowly escaping another incoming 18-wheeler, I felt proud of myself. I realized that I had just done my part to help maintain a sustainable environment for us, for our children, and for our beloved Planet Earth. Plus, L said I had to. 3 Stars.

The key word is "residents". I put residents in quotation marks because of the comments made by Billy K. While I understand that some drive from far off distances to recycle, the paint dumping service is for the residents of Round Rock like me who pay our monthly bill for the waste to be picked up and water to run in our homes. In addition, the Round Rock Recycling Center does mention that a water/waste bill is required for paint drop off days on their website. Every time I come here, the volunteers are friendly and are eager to help.

I had some old scrap wood and pallets to get rid of along with an old twin metal bed frame that was bent. I have used these guys in the past for broken TVs and they have always provided a delightful customer experience. You have the options of leaving stuff out on the curb but I couldn't do that because of my HOA. Also, last time I had left a desk that someone snatched up from the curb. So I didn't want to waste their time again. Their technology use is pretty awesome and respectfully as a IT guy I appreciate how it makes billing simple and easy. You cannot go wrong with this company hauling your junk for you. It saves you time and effort than doing it yourself and paying for the fees at the landfill. I highly recommend using them from my own personal experience.
