I volunteered to redeem the munched plastic bottles, rattling cans, and occasional bottle we found while tidying up the neighborhood. I was pleasantly surprised. Glendale Recycling Center is efficiently run and the service is great. The staff helps move the lines along and everyone is very nice and hardworking. And if I read the prices correctly, GRC pays a few cents more for plastics + cans than those SuperA grocery store guys in a delivery truck. I know this because I left the SuperA guy in Cypress Park when he decided to take his lunch 15 mins. early and close up shop. Glad I looked to YELP and found this place in a snap without wasting time. Also, this place is almost like an all-in-one recycling center where you can not only get CRV money, but also drop off old electronics, all those Amazon cardboard boxes, and some other things that you can't throw into your regular trash bin. (Some items they don't accept, but they'll direct you to where you can take them.) Since this was a pleasant & relatively painless experience, I just might make a daily habit out our Earth Day practice and return every now and then.

I usually go in the mornings so its rarely crowded. I like it because it is quick, easy, and…read morenothing wrong with the service. Having a Target there to get some shopping errands done at the same time is a plus as well. As for the return rate, I can't comment too much since I'm not a pro on how to maximize at Recycling establishments. However what I get back seems fair enough. If I feel I'm getting shorted in the future I'll be changing my rating/updating my review, and going somewhere else.

Punch line before story- watch the weight on the scales!…read more We had the copper removed from our home that will need a rebuild after a fire. Our plumber brought his apprentice over who knew there are 3 different price levels. Pure copper pipe. The parts that connect that have solder. And the brass parts Upon arriving we thought there would be an entrance in the back alley. Nope. Customers unload in front on San Fernando Rd. An attendant will give you garbage containers to haul metal in. We had 3 types so 3 bins. When the man at the weigh station put the copper on I was watching the screen and took a photo. (Our plumbers apprentice had warned us about this place and said the best price was in Simi or Sunland...too far and too long for our meager amount) Then he weighed the other two while we were talking with another staff member. (Shouldn't have been distracted while conducting business) The guy at the scale shows us the total and I realize the Copper 1 was now much lighter than the original weight! I showed him the photo on my phone and he corrected it! In hindsight I should have had all 3 weighed again. But we were tired, dirty and the whole process pretty depressing and I didn't want to make a huge deal out of it. So consumer beware! It's a good service they provide and somewhat convenient location. But be aware and pay attention!

I haven't recycled my cans and bottles in many years but recently, I had a lot of bottles from a…read morejuice cleanse and I decided to take them to a recycling center. I'm guessing that most people who go to recycling centers are experienced and do not need any guidance. I didn't know what to do and I asked for help. I didn't get much of a response, but I saw other people sorting their recyclables, so I did the same. They had various containers that you use to sort your items. I didn't know that they don't accept glass bottles even though the bottles have a CRV value listed on them and their description says they accept glass bottles. One of the employees dumped my glass bottles out and said no glass. He broke one and didn't offer to give me my glass bottles back. After the items are sorted, they're weighed. They ask you for your name, have you sign a form, and pay you in cash. Look for the giant dumpsters in the parking lot. The area is kinda gross with a lot of bees.

Since I was nearby on an errand and had some recycling in the trunk, I searched for a nearby…read morerecycling center and this came up. It's in the same plaza as Ralphs, off of Emerson Ave. This isn't my usual recycling place. So it was a surprise to me to find out that they accept wine bottles and even those Ragu jars! (Be sure to clean the inside since the workers have to break it down themselves.) My regular recycling center didnt take those so I've been just tossing it in the trash. (My garbage company says they will separate it out but somehow I am skeptical.) Since finding this place, I've been bringing all of my wine bottles and glass jars here. As for the value when it comes to these glass items, I'm not sure if I am getting a fair price or not since I have nothing to compare it to. But at least in my situation, I am getting a little something instead of absolutely nothing when I toss it in the trash. The lines go quickly at this location. It's definitely a shorter wait time compared to my usual place. And the staff here are friendly. I've been back and will keep coming back!

The bins they use for sorting are super light and netted. This means anything smaller than 3 inches will fall out.
