    Got $83.43 for these.
    Chris P.

    Ive been to a few of the other recycling centers in Anaheim and Action Recycling, they rip you off and always try to give you half of what you bring in. This place Sanchez Recycling pays me 2x as much as other centers and they show you the screen and the weight. I always have close to the same weight in plastic bottles and cans and now get way more money here and a friendly attitude by the people who work here. At Action i was always getting about $35.00 and now here at Sanchez i got $84.43 for whats in this picture which is always the same. I love this place.

    They brought the bins up to our car and even started weighing us out as we were still unloading our recycle.

All you need is your ID to show proof of residency. I recently went through our old shed, which hasn't been cleaned in a few years. I managed to get rid of a few paint canisters, paint buckets, cleaning chemicals & more. I had about 2 medium sized boxes worth of items. I simply pulled up around opening time, popped open the trunk of my CRV, associates easily removed the items from my car, & was sent on my merry way. By far the easiest junk removal process I could ask for. We are in Spring & Spring Cleaning is upon us. If you have small amounts of hazardous household waste material; this is what you are looking for.
