Most everyone is aware that being Green means recycling and not polluting or littering air, water,…read moreor ground. More and more people are becoming conscious to REDUCE their consumption, REUSE (or donate) anything possible, REPAIR anything possible, and ultimately RECYCLE what remains. In addition, anything that is toxic like batteries, unusable paint, yard chemicals, solvents, oils, aerosol cans, fluorescent light bulbs, anything that does not decompose into dirt, must be disposed of safely and most likely can be recycled in some form. Sonoma County Landfill has a household toxic disposal/recycling center which I use whenever I need to. I never, ever put anything toxic in my trash or recycle bins at home. This has been my reason for coming to the Sonoma County Landfill. Not to put anything at all into the landfill, but to make sure that anything from my household that is toxic be recycled. There is usually a line of trucks and cars up to the toxic recycling station, but it moves quite fast. You are told to stay in your vehicle, handed a clip board with a simple form to fill out stating you are a Sonoma County resident, and when you reach the drop-off station the attendant takes your toxics out of your car trunk or pickup bed. Pretty Simple! The Residential: Household Toxic Disposal & Recycling station is only open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 7:30 am to 2:30 pm. There is another way to recycle other more common things at Sonoma County Landfill. Just around the corner from the Household Toxics station are a series of huge dumpsters. One each for plastics, metals, glass, paper, cardboard, etc. For me, I am a little uncomfortable putting some items in my home recycle bin like EMPTY yard insecticide plastic bottles, or Roundup plastic bottles, empty paint cans, plastics without the recycle number, things like that . . . even though it is probably okay to do so. I just drive up to the giant recycle dumpsters and put those things in their respective dumpster. Since construction crews unload industrial amounts of these materials into these dumpsters, it makes me feel like my little recyclable items will be included in the big melt downs and not sorted out; I could be wrong. Note: All these services are Free! The one thing that Sonoma County Landfill does Not recycle is Styrofoam (polystyrene). So, that means everyone in Sonoma County throws this toxic stuff into the land fill. Not Good! What I do is save all my Styrofoam in my garage until I have a car full and then drive down to Hayward (1 1/2 hours away) to a company that truly recycles Styrofoam. I am dedicated to doing my part to be environmentally responsible. I produce extremely little garbage in my life. I have the smallest garbage can (20 gallon) of the four sizes available from our disposal company. It takes me weeks to fill it up. Everything else I consume goes into either the blue recycle bin or the green bin for yard/food composting. I drive a low emissions vehicle and I am a vegan (you wouldn't believe how much being vegan helps the environment). Making my carbon footprint as low as humanly possible is my goal . . . kind of like the Native Americans did with their harmony with Nature. I wish . . . I was that skillful! At least, I have an ideal to aim for. Review 0073

So what's good about "Computer Recycling"? I pulled up, dropped the tailgate, a guy comes out and starts taking all the crappy electronics out and stacking it with other junk people delivered. I helped - but this guy unloaded the microwave which was heavy. I then got back into my truck and drove off. What could be nicer than that?! Free disposal of all this old nasty electronic crap. If you are a landlord or your brother-in-law moves out of your house, you will love this place! I can't tell you how exhilarating it was to drive off and leave all of that stuff. No papers to sign, no cranky old guy to say, "I don't know... that looks like nasty stuff." Just drive up, dump it and leave. Who knows? Maybe you can get rid of your brother-in-law too! They may have a job for him sorting all the stuff out. He could probably handle it with some supervision.

Jonny is a consummate professional and he runs his business like a well-oiled machine. From initial contact to final pickup, every aspect of my transaction was handled with utmost professionalism at a level that's frankly hard-to-find these days! On the phone, when I first contacted him, he was polite, patient, well-spoken, and laid out the schedule of fees and logistics of the experience in a way that anyone could understand. His website is modern and easy-to-use, with diagrams that explain clearly what to expect in volume from which-ever dumpster you choose to rent. His driver was equally service-oriented and proactively contacted me the day-of to makes sure he was placing the dumpster in the right location for me. Pickup happened right on time, with no trash left behind, and my payment was processed (and accurate to his estimate) immediately upon weigh-in. Can't say enough good things about these guys!!!

Lester, in response to your reply, your associate was rude and defensive from the moment I called,…read moreI even thought I had a wrong number with her monotone and rude way of answering the phone and had to call back. I didn't even have time to press her for an answer. She hung up on me. You must not have read my last message to you three weeks ago as I had stated that I didn't care to point the blame at anyone as your employee was rudely defending herself and denying everything. I simply wanted to know what the next steps would be and how to solve this problem but she hung up before I could finish asking that. Then refused to answer when I called back. The last known whereabouts of that package was at your store. You told me in a private message that it was picked up at 2:30 pm but you refused to show me receipts or proof that it was picked up. You failed to answer the questions I had asked in those private messages. You failed to follow up with me to try to de-escalate this problem. But your concern about your associates feelings rather than a customer's satisfaction is very telling. I had every right to be upset. The representative from the FedEx office that I spoke with today even confirmed that you let that package sit there for three weeks. Seems like she knew you've done something like that before. Yes, this case is closed. Mystery solved. You kept our package in your office until two days ago. You can deny it all again and gaslight, but that just makes you look even worse. Please do not reply to me again. *************** I am updating my previous review because I now know what actually happened to our shipment. It's a shame that I had to find out this information on my own rather than from Lester and his associates. A FedEx 2Day envelope containing vehicle registration tags was dropped off at this location on June 16. It was supposed to arrive on June 18 but wasn't delivered until July 9. During that time, my husband and I drove the vehicle from Las Vegas to Boston with expired registration tags because the tags never arrived. We carried DMV paperwork throughout the trip and worried about being stopped in multiple states. While we were traveling, I called this location to ask why the package had not moved. Instead of looking into it, the employee was dismissive, defensive, rude, and abruptly ended the call. After the envelope was finally delivered, I contacted FedEx directly. The representative investigated the shipment and informed me that the package had never left this office and was not picked up until July 7. She also had to apologize on behalf of this office and that a payment was made for $70 for two-day shipping and received it more than three weeks later. The delay itself was bad enough. Being dismissed when I called seeking help was even worse. Had someone taken a few minutes to investigate instead of acting defensive and more concerned about their associate being questioned and ending the conversation, we would have had answers weeks earlier.
