I took in some plastic bottles and cans to sell (yes this was my first time). It was a quick and…read moreeasy process- all they do is weigh it, give you a receipt, you then take it to the front desk and they pay you. Great experience for me no hassles!

Getting rid of some stuff, and there was an aluminum stepladder. I called and asked if this would…read morebe treated as aluminum, since 99% of it is aluminum. I was told yes, it's treated as aluminum, but to hold a minute and they'd check for sure. She came back and said yes, she'd checked and it was treated that way. When I got there, I was told that it would be "dirty" aluminum, since there was a piece of plastic at the very top of the ladder, which was bolted on. As a result, it was worth 15 cents/lb rather than 50 cents/lb. Had I been told that when I called, I would have spent 5 minutes unbolting the plastic. As it was, I got almost enough out of it to pay for the gas to get it there. So, just be aware that even if you call with a specific question about a specific item and get an answer, you might get a different answer when you actually get there.

Clean the Planet Recycling is now at a new location! I've…read morebeen visiting their new address at 1112 W Birchwood Ave, Mesa, AZ 85210 and I can honestly say -- this is the best place to recycle metal. They are honest, quick, and they offer better prices than other recycling centers in the area. https://recyclersmesa.com/ Their updated phone number is 480-361-1863, and the team there is always friendly and helpful. If you're looking to get more value for your scrap metal, I highly recommend coming here. Don't go to the old address -- come straight to the new one! rivasangeñito@yahoo.com

Sadly I ran into this again today. I found some material on the ground and set it on a ledge. I asked if they could sell me some of the same materials. The staffer was rude, asked how I'd feel if he went into my car and grabbed stuff. He also said he'd 86 me if I did it again. This was unnecessary and needlessly unprofessional. I simply was putting it into a more obvious place than the ground. After all if I dropped something I'd appreciate someone picking something up if I dropped it. No good deed goes unpunished here apparently. I was so flabbergasted I didn't respond with a better explanation but it's a situation I never should've happened. The only reason I have given them two stars rather than one is because the gal at the counter was very nice as she usually is. Still overall disappointed with the whole experience.

If you have steel, drive up on the scale, wait for the light to change, drive around, unload everything, drive back up onto the scale, wait for the light again, then pull all the way back around to the trailer. They'll meet you outside and coordinate payment! If you have brass, copper, etc, pull up to the ramada (right before the vehicle scale) and someone will be there to weigh what you have on a smaller scale. Then go to the trailer, coordinate payment. They are quick, simple, and always give a great value. One or two of the employees might come off a little rough. But they work in the Arizona heat. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt!

Due to COVID, the city of Phoenix was not offering recycling drop off events so I found this company through an internet search. They take nearly all types of electronics: computers, monitors, radios, DVD players, motors, rechargeable batteries and backup drives, printer cartridges, old power cords, etc. and all for free, but with a small charge for printers, scanners and CRT monitors. I had a scanner/printer that I no longer wanted and that was $5, my monitors, tablets, power cords, were all taken off my hands for free. They also wipe your hard drives. The drop off process was easy, sign a short form in the front office with your contact info and what you are dropping off, pay a fee if needed, then drive around the back and an associate unloads your trunk. They do not have pick up for individuals but do have corporate pickup services. The staff were very friendly and pleasant.
