I used to weigh 200 lb so I was paid $50 because they could take more blood, but then I lost weight so now I am only paid $45 but that's ok. Basically if you're big this gig is to your advantage. It's best to come in early so you don't have to wait long. The staff has almost always been competent and polite. Sometimes some have been grumpy. One time there was a complication and I started bleeding under my skin and my forearms became tingly and numb and I almost passed out. But I also was dizzy because I had wine the night before and you're not supposed to do that. They took good care of me after that though. Put my feet up, gave me ice packs and a Gatorade. Also one time right after I told an employee I'm musician and asked if she could maybe prick me at an angle that won't interfere with my practice sessions, she pricked me so hard I was bruised for days. So that was sweet. That was the same day I almost passed out. Basically the place looks shady but they do their job so you shouldn't worry about anything. I still like it better than Biolife, which I could never get scheduled into. It was a huge pain. CSL is much better for me and great if you're unemployed because you can come in the am on a work day and no one will be there.

I have also donated blood twice. I started this journey in July 2025. They are all so thankful to have you there and will help keep you comfortable during the process. They care about their donors. The facility seems older, but is clean. After donation they always have a good variety of snacks and beverages waiting for you. The other fun thing is the American Red Cross gives little gifts to all donors. I recommend signing up for the app. It shows you your Mini health screening results gives you points to redeem for more prizes and even tells you where your blood has traveled! If you have time, please donate!!

You show up before your appointment (you can only check in 10 minutes in advance) and there is a line of 30 people still waiting to be screened for their appointment 45 minutes ago. A complete cattle-call. That's what it is. You're a cow lined up ready to be milked, except you will be stabbed with a needle twice and they're actually taking your BLOOD. While they're treating you like throw-away garbage.

This place is ok. I don't have much experience to compare with. What I can say is that the line is…read moreforever and you are lucky if there are two people working the screening window. There is one guy who pulls his friends and lets them cut or he goes over to the counter to discuss boating and fishing with his buddies. It's already stressful getting thru the screening process. When you get to the back, you get to hear all the technician's problems and complaints about management, being lied to by management, staffing problems, etc. There is a lady and a guy who seem to be in charge but they would rather look important than to actually help their staff and make things run smoother and let their team sink. The guy in charge looks pretty cold like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. I do like the phlebotomist boss. He is probably the biggest asset they have. If you go to this place be prepared to stand, wait and be treated to a drama show. Jerry Soringer Show has nothing on this place.

Of course they recommend that you drink plenty of water and eat protein before your appointment which I always try to do. I have had a couple times when my veins didn't cooperate but I still got paid for the attempt!

After that, just be sure to follow the donation day instructions and you should be good to go! You can feel good that you are helping someone in need and also getting a little payday! ~ Kim B
