My experience with Ekco Metals has been excellent. I have used them twice to recycle insulated…read morecopper cables, such as Power cords, HDMI, RCA cables. I got a quoted price range on Yelp. and they paid what they said they would, and the price that was offered was quite good. This isn't my usual experience with other metal recyclers. Probably because business is so competitive and price of copper is down, I have experienced with others is they quote a high price, and then offer a much lower price in person. If you are selling metal, the process is to park your truck in the lot, remove any plastic bags or extraneous material, check with the weighing office to understand how to separate your goods, put the metal into a flat dolly or plastic bin, and bring it back to be weighed and payed. Good Work!

First time there . Employees were friendly . Cashed out same day , but once I reviewed receipt…read moreafter I left , I discovered that they combined my clean and dirty copper with brass and gave me brass rates . Also they weighed everything while I was busy filling out papers for first time customers , therefore I didn't notice that they did 3 separate weigh ins for 3 water heaters that I brought. One had a huge tare ,bringing down weight significantly, not sure what was it for. Then they labeled one as white goods, bringing down the rate . They bamboozled me and i made the mistake for trusting them and not reviewing receipt while still there . Regardless , they made me sign before even telling me the total amount that I was getting . Attaching photo of receipt .

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!

This recycling center is behind Ralph's on Emerson. Currently Ralph's parking lot is under…read moreconstruction, so it doesn't connect by car. You can still park here and walk into Ralph's. They only take plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and drink glass bottles. I was denied milk gallon bottles and empty glass sauce jars. Aluminum cans $1.65 by weight When I come here during the weekday afternoons, it's always so busy. They have a water dispenser and hand sanitizer on a small table by the sidewalk. The bins they use for sorting are super light and netted. This means anything smaller than 3 inches will fall out.
