I was looking for a recycling center closer to me and found this little gem. Located right next to…read morea gas station, this place operates right out of a container box with one scale, huge sacks to put in the weighted recycles and one man operating this business. I had 5 big sacks of recycles and have to wait for an open parking spot to back up my car because there's no way I'm going to lug them around from the side of the street where I found parking. Anyway, besides the point, I got into an open spot, grabbed empty bins and starts putting in my cans. The guy also then started weighing and emptying them into those large sacks hanging from the side of the container door. Aside from my big loads, the process was actually very quick and I was out of there in no time. I actually got a good amount of money from all my recycles and I can't complain about that. Also, don't expect to get any help unloading your sacks and getting it emptied into the bins because this is a do it yourself place (even the old lady in front of me managed to do it herself). There's no VIP service up in here y'all. This place is literally nestled right next to the gas station store and if you're not familiar with it, you'll miss it. Come here early to avoid wait as they share parking lot with the gas station and there's about at least 4 spots closer to this business. But if you don't mind parking on the streets and lugging your recyclables then you're good. Definitely my new go to place to bring in my recyclables and you can't beat the friendly guy that works here as well.

Fantastic! I have…read morebeen bringing my cans and plastic bottles for recycling here for years. They always offer a great rate and accept a variety of different plastics, aluminum, and glass. Even on busy weekends, they always have plenty of bins available to use for sorting. They are constantly washed down and feel clean. The wait is never too long - they have us in and out super quick. The business has definitely grown recently as I have noticed they have more workers now. There is ample parking too. I would also add that the owner of this place is fantastic. He has such a genuine spark that is so refreshing to see. Even though I come back every few months, he will remember what we chatted about the last time like a friend. A great guy with a great business! Will definitely be back!

I was ecstatic to see they reopened in early 2021. I showed up with a truckload of green waste and was told they no longer accept green waste at this location and I would have to go to their Vernalis location, 1 hour round trip. I decided to go. After dumping my load at the Vernalis location I went to pay. The price had shot up to $38!!! I literally could have driven 10 miles to Bertolotti Transfer Station and paid $8 less. Sorry Recology, I use to think you were great, I will never go back.
