Theres tons of space to drive up, park, unload your car. I even saw a moving truck dropping off cardboard boxes. There was plenty of space for my mixed paper in the massive blue bins, and giant enclosure for cardboard.

We are here typically twice a month dropping big cardboard boxes and bottle glass…read more It has become routine and when we see Socially Responsible Companies doing their part, makes me feel really good. We usually see restaurants there and other businesses dropping off boxes and glass but this day, we saw an automotive company truck loadedwith boxes and boxes of tin oil cans recycling. Awesome guys! Way to help Mother Earth!

I used the Yelp App to locate a place to recycle a 65" Flat Screen Samsung TV that had quit. I did…read morenot want to just throw it in the landfill. The App sent out two requests under the projects program for responses. Within 24 hours I received two excellent responses that fit my needs. The first was a local nonprofit recycling center with 6 miles. The other was Total Reclaim. Total Reclaim operates a recycling business that accepts on site delivery of recycling products including TV's and other electronics. I consulted their website for details and location and they were 50 miles away. They also have a pickup service in their local area but only rarely in my area. They do charge fees for their services. I choose the local facility because of closeness and smaller fees. It cost me just $7 to recycle the 100 pound TV. I encourage people to use the services of Total Recall when needed. The Anchorage Landfill operates a limited recycling program at the main landfill in Eagle River. It accepts glass which the MatSu Borough Landfill will not. They also accept hazardous materials but I am unsure about electronics. Check the websites for ALL locations to get details and costs concerning their individual operations. I encourage everyone to use the recycling programs to reduce waste, contamination and pollution.

This place is very confusing…read more "Alaska Recycling Center" appears to be the name of their website URL, not the name of the business. The name of the business is "Centeral Recycling Sevices" (CRS). When I asked the person working the machinery outside if this was the Alaska Recycling Center, he replied: "No, this is See-Are-Ess". Anyway, they are the same place. The address on Yelp will get you here. I recycled a muffler. Despite saying all over their website that they buy metal, it seems like that's only specific amounts. I wasn't offered any money, they just said I could leave it on the counter. Oh well, better than collecting dust in my garage.

Terrible company. Parked me in while shredding documents instead of parking in the nearby alley…read more Made me late for a meeting due to the driver's laziness. Driver was also flippant and rude.

The Valley Community Recycling Center is one of the best that I have encountered in 30 years of…read morerecycling in several different places. They have a building that you drive into and several volunteers that help you unload and distribute the different classes of recycling materials in the correct drops downs. They have a printed data sheet with pictures that explain the different categories of recycling materials so that you can separate them prior to arrival and the volunteers are very helpful in helping you learn the many categories. They also accept things that many recycling centers don't. They accept the gardening pots that you have and make them available to others for free or a small donation. They accept books, wire, other metals, pallets, aluminum foil and cans. The pallets can be purchased for a $1 donation. They do not accept hazardous waste or oil but the Borough landfill next door does. The Borough landfill will accept TV's, electronics equipment and hazardous materials. The recycling center has a membership program that provides a sticker for unlimited recycling for a year or they suggest a small donation of $3.00 per trip. They are always looking for volunteers if you wish to help them. Every item recycled and not thrown away helps the environment. I highly encourage you to contact them and join them in improving the environment and eliminating as much disposed of waste in the landfill or thrown illegally in our beautiful lands.
