It is a great place to dump I want to trash or furniture or whatever if you're doing your spring or…read morefall cleaning. Or if you're just getting rid of junk out of your house or basement or whatever. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because some of the workers are not very skilled at giving you directions as to where to park your vehicle to unload it. Other than that it's a great experience. There can be long lines depending on what time of day you go. Oh and FYI, no panel trucks and no trailers allowed. Vehicles that are allowed include pickup trucks, suvs, vans, minivans, and cars. Automobiles are $2, all the other vehicles are $5. Happy dumping

I am a bit of a recycling nut. The Kroger by my house has bins, but they only accept paper, glass,…read moremetal, and plastics 1 & 2. This leaves a LOT of things that still need to be recycled, but with no home. Rock-Tenn is that home. Rock-Tenn will take nearly everything. Plastics 1-7, cardboard, even phone books. In fact they have a special dumpster for phone books. So the next time you go out to your mailbox, see the stack of phone books that have been left, wonder why we still need paper phone books in 2011, then decide to get rid of them, take them here. Pros: - They are a single sort facility so you don't have to separate your plastics from glass and such, but try not to throw garbage in their bins. - Their gates are typically open 24 hours, but even if they are not, you can park outside them and walk a short distance (20ft) to the bins. - The bins are very large so there's plenty of room, especially in the back because most people are too lazy to walk to the back of the bins. Cons: - Their parking lot puts on a clinic on how to make white mud. If you just washed your car or are wearing your vintage chucks, i recommend parking in the road area otherwise your wheel wells and shoes will be covered. -They don't take Styrofoam. Yes, I know it's typically #6, but their facility doesn't have the machine to handle it properly. -Lazy patrons tend to not pick up their dropped recycling, so the area around the bins is often littered with lazy people evidence.

I take all my cardboard, paperboard and phone books here. It is so simple-just drive through the…read moregates, turn immediately left and the bins are there. It is very muddy-like all the time. I did not see a phone book booth bin this time, and I unfortunately had some to recycle. I put them in the cardboard bin. :/ I know they take them from previous visits. I feel bad when I do stuff like that, but at least I am recycling?? In Seattle, they just put everything in one bin, and it gets picked up. Also, I saw another reviewer said they think they are open 24/7. I have specifically looked a few times on my way home from work downtown, and have noticed that the gates were closed. I didn't notice a chain, but I would figure that they don't want people all over the property all the time. So glad someone on the south side offers this service for free. Awesome-and easy access!!

Before I could ask if it was a business or wrong number he was very rude and hung up in my face before I even got to ask if he could pickup all this scrap metal at my job site. So disrespectful.
