This used to be my favorite recycling center until this past weekend. We loaded up the car with bags and bags of plastic bottles and aluminum cans to turn in. Drove here and arrived just after 9 AM. Per their posted hours, they should have been open at 9 AM on Saturday. We parked outside and waited for nearly 30 minutes and nobody showed up! There were multiple other customers who parked and we all ended up leaving and had to go elsewhere. Terrible service! ZERO STARS! read more

Tony was amazing. This is my first time visiting and he helped explain what I needed to do. The location is hidden but accessible from the South street driveway. You could use Woodruff but you would have to zig zag around the retail stores. The recycling center was very clean and organized. I was impressed with how clean it was considering. I've heard stories about other recycling centers with liquid on the ground trash all over the place, but that was not the case with the center. Definitely recommend those at recycle to visit this center. The photo that's included in this yelp review displays their prices. So compare it with other locations if you are a recycler to determine whether it's a benefit to you. read more

Please disregard my last review, they now accept glass bottles. This place is not as busy as the recycling center down the street at the corner of South and Woodruff. PLUS they give better returns on your recyclables. The person at this facility I dealt with was very kind and considerate. read more

Always frequent this recycling location as the customer service is not only great but efficient as well. The older gentleman helping me today was friendly. He seemed to be getting back from his lunch break around the time I arrived. I'm assuming they're closed for lunch around 12-1ish so do keep that in mind. Every time I go here, I seem to get a good amount of return from my recycling so would definitely recommend! read more

Recycling in Lakewood, Los Angeles, California... Since I was in the area (and had some bottles and cans in my car), I searched my Yelp app for a nearby recycling center. Express Recycling is BEHIND Ross. Look for the little street signs and drive all the way in... There are actually two ways to get around to the back of the building! Service was very friendly and helpful! The pleasant worker even joked around and chatted with customers! Efficiently, I signed for my cash and was on my way! Thank you! Note: closed from 12:30 to 1pm for lunch. Open daily from 9am to 5pm! read more

Easy fast and clean. I was helped and i didn't wait long. I definitely will go back.

This is my first time here. I was saving up for a long time. The man brought mesh containers to my car. He was very nice. I had a lot of cans, several plastic bottles, and 2 glass ones. There was no wait. He weighed everything. My recycling reward came out to just under $20, and he paid me in cash. Then I went to get a pizza. read more

I normally wait until I have a couple garbage bags full of plastic or cans to come here. Service has always been fast and friendly and payouts seem fair. Great location too with easy parking and food in the adjacent strip mall so I use the money I get here to buy lunch. read more

Small but convenient. They are pretty fast paced. They offer great prices on cans, glass bottles, and plastics.

Here it's quick and clean because usually at other places it'll smell and it looks like the inside of a trash can. they also have a promotion going on where if you bring in 50$ worth you enter a raffle. looks like I'll be saving my recycling and coming in to win. shout out to Esteban for the information and service. read more

Clean quick and easy!! it's such a small and inconspicuous spot, but I'm really glad that I found this location. I think it's gonna be my new go to to drop off recyclables.

There wasn't that many people before me which made it super quick and easy to get in and out. read more
