    Recycling Receipt

    I never had a misunderstanding about pricing, it's pretty straightforward and the lbs on the scale shows up huge. The man and his son are always pleasant to me when I arrive, very "friendly". I started going to this location because my experience at Spring Valley recycling on Elkelton Blvd was not good, very inconsistent with hours and customers service. We all have different experiences, but my experiences with Friendly Recycling has always been good.

    Staff are friendly. You can be in and out very quickly. Hopefully they will always be successful and remain open for a long time.

    i've been coming here a few years and just noticed them on Yelp. i saw 1 star so i need to help…read morethese guys out. 1. a 'weigh machine' is called a scale. the scale is right in front so i don't know how Tee missed it. it also weighs in 0.1 increments so the hundredths she saw were in her head. these guys are usually there 10 minutes early, but sometimes get there right at 9 and take 5 minutes to open the gate and put the baskets out. if you're time is that valuable that you can't wait 5 minutes you probably don't do your own recycling. 2. there is a SD county weights and measures seal on the scale display, it is regulated and enforced very strictly. I'm glad Tee won't be back, less wait time for me.

    "No, no, no." First, the business has posted hours opening…read moreat 9 a.m.; however, they do not begin setting up until that time while people have to wait on them. Second, the older, shorter male assigned to help customers was rude. He watched me load the recycling in the dirty trash cans they set out and then later brought out wire baskets telling me to reload again. I questioned and was about to put all the recycling back in my truck, when he started to transfer items to the basket. Third, the weigh machine is positioned far from customers view, but I'm pretty sure I saw a 1.36, yet this guy only reported. 1.26 in recycling. These businesses should be regulated including that customers are able to see the weigh machine. I guess I need to look into that. Needless to say, I won't return.

This time I went, he was there but not working the weighing station, another gentleman I haven't seen before. When we walked to cashier I looked at my receipt and it said total was 23. 84 cents. NEVER have I only got that. I usually have the same amount every time I go, because once my containers are full at home, I usually get between 65 and 80 78 dollars. I take them in. So I was going to ask if there was a drastic change in prices at window, but it was like the girl heard us talking about in on camera because as soon as I put ticket down, she grabbed it and said " I will be right back" we waited for about 3-5 minutes she finally comes back and says "sorry about the wait, but I saw you were not credited correctly, your new total is 74.56" I said oh good because I was going to ask why it was much lower than normal, but ho did that happen? She said " sometimes, they rush and punch in whatever." We left having even more questions. How or why are they " just able to punch in whatever they want?" Isn't it all computerized? Aren't they supposed to weigh our items and whatever the weight is, is what should be printed out? This has me concerned they are not weighing honestly? Is this suspicious?
