There are many stores around the city that take cans and bottles for a 5 cent refund. Wegmans, Tops…read moreare just a few of the bigger stores. Recently I noticed a small store located at 471 East Ridge road called "Quick Cans". It is in a little plaza at the 475 plaza. I decided to check it out for a couple of reasons. Quite often when people go to the bigger stores and you have 10 or 15 cans or bottles, you end up waiting for the guy who has 3 grocery bags full. You might get lucky if he lets you first, LOL. I checked this place out and they pay the exact same price as the big places, 5 cents per can or bottle. Instant service, people count your cans and bottles right away and pay! While I was there I saw a variety of people coming in. From the homeowner cashing in a few bags of cans, to landlords-business people coming in with larger loads. I was impressed. If you want to save time I suggest "Quick Cans".

I dropped off a hospital grade recliner with an all metal frame. The only thing that was wood was the hollowed out press board and foot rest. I was charged with taking back the recliner and picking it up myself. Being that it's a mechanical recliner it was extremely heavy and ultimately I threw my back out. Don't go here there's plenty of other scrap yards.

I feel the only way to stop certain staff from stealing the customers $$$ is for the owner of the business to have one of their family or friends return precounted bottles & see for themselves.

If it's happened to me, no doubt it happens throughout the day. I don't want to think of the families that count on that $$$ for desperately needed food, diapers or gas. It's also crazy to think that I've added a TIP each time I've been there, so they have more of my $$$. I no longer go there, I precount my returnables no matter where I go.
