Super easy and super fast! I went on a Saturday morning and the lot was packed! But we were in and…read moreout in less than 30 minutes. You grab 3 trash bins that they provide to separate your cans, glass, and plastic. Then you just line up, a gentleman will double check your separation, weigh, and you get your cash right there! I've came before with a couple of trash bags full and got $20. Fun and easy way to recycle!

It was great to find someplace open on a Sunday, and they are close to home. They were a little…read morebusy when we got there around 10:30am, but they are fast. None of the workers came out to greet us or ask if we needed any help when we first got there. There was one guy who politely asked if I needed help bringing my garbage bins up to the weighing area while I was already in line, which I gladly accepted. The cashier was friendly, quick to sort the bins, weigh, and pay. The area is a little tight with a few dedicated parking spots. It is between the liquor store and the auto parts store, in a driveway into the shopping center. So it's busy with traffic, other customers and not the cleanest area, but they got the job done, and I was grateful that they were open on a Sunday. I'll use them again!

I could never give 5 stars to an experience where you stand in line to recycle cans in a loud…read morechaotic environment, only to get dirty nasty up to your elbows. But for what it is, this is a very efficient recycling center in a town without a lot of great options. For some time now, we've had our son collect cans and bottles which I agree to cash in for his piggy bank money. It's a laborious process. First you need to separate the cans, bottles and plastics, then separate them again based on things like size and CRV. Then you take them down, transfer them to a series of grody trash cans and let the staff weight them out. don't expect to leave here and go straight to lunch. Let's just say the complimentary hand sanitizer on the counter, while thoughtful, doesn't begin to do the trick. The staff is super nice, efficient and great at what they do. I even introduced the guy to some new types of beer based on my drinking habits. All in all an experience made best by the people who run it.

So the turn around time to get an empty bin was longer than I've ever experienced at other recycling centers. BUT DOUBLE CHECK YOUR PAYMENT. I brought aluminum cans and plastic bottles. My slip clearly said #1 for plastics, but yet the lady at the desk put "scrap plastic" which was only 0.05/lb vs 1.46/lb I was supposed to receive. I'm semi new to recycling but I knew something was wrong when I only received $8 payment. When I took it back and told her, she had to look for my original paper that she had ripped to double check. Thankfully it all got sorted out.

The guys were very helpful and polite. I was even offered a soft drink while I waited for a fax to come through. This is a scrap yard and it should be "filled with metal scraps and random people just wandering around" doing there jobs. People come and go as they should in a place of business. I had a truck bed full of motors, unstripped copper wire, stainless, copper, and mild steel. It was all weighed separately and full detail was on the receipt. For those with business licenses you get cash immediately and for personal they said it can take up to 3 business days. They even gave me a fortune cookie!!

Signs instruct drivers where to wait and to turn off their engine. A nice gentleman came out to assist us, and took everything out of the trunk without us having to even get out of the car! Nice. I think? my honey had to show his ID too. It feels good to dispose of things properly, and this is a location that will help you do that efficiently and painlessly.

It does feel a little intimidating to be around such huge dump trucks. Here I am in my small Nissan SUV.... But the process as a whole is pretty easy. Like just be aware what's going on and your surroundings. There is usually a person out at the dump field there to guide you in. That person will tell you where to go and dump your items. Pretty easy, just wear shoes. When exiting: remember to wait your turn before going up the ramp.... They weigh that person ahead of you and charge them accordingly. If the scale is clear, then it's your turn to go up the small ramp and get yourself weighed in. Because I don't really have much (according to dumpster), the cost is usually at $35. They accept credit cards too which is nice.

I looked on their website and it showed $50 to dump plus an additional fee for specific items. We agreed and hauled out of our disposals to this location. When we got there, the guy told us that the $50 was just the minimum fee (not disclosed or very unclear on their website). They did not have a scale here. He just lowered his glasses and said "Look like that's gonna be about $285." We left and found another locations that only charged us $95 (based on their scale) for EVERYTHING which also included the specific items that were an additional cost at this establishment. Unless you have money to throw away, I would not recommend this place when their pricing is based on a guess.
