    I hope this company / business updates their customers, letting them know they have moved and are no longer at the Safeway/ Branham-Snell location. We've stopped by three times with Recycling. The first time was decent, they were open for business. The 2nd and 3rd time, there were no Recycling Stations to be found. Yelp may still have the Operating Hours listed, but the Recycling Station is no longer there. If you moved. Please kindly update your location and inform Safeway Staff, so they can maybe re-direct customers to the closest, most convenient Recycling Station in their part of town.

    This person is very professional on finding non crv material

    Awsome job the gentleman with glass that works here very friendly and professional on what he does takes his time and checks each bin for non crv material and does it with a amazing smile and dancing while doing it ... very very interesting when he catches a non crv and lectures us on why it ain't buyable . I give the recycling center five stars because they're clean and fast and pay you cash . thank you Jado Recycling for being open and staff keep up the outstand job you guys are doin

    Used at every location!

    Thank goodness for this location. The owner knows the right places to set up shop to serve her communities . I stopped into this location on my way running errands for a good friend I found this recycling center was a bit bigger than the one by my place in Fremont and was impressed by the way the operation was so well in tune. I recycle more often now because there are options. The surrounding cities need to approve more of these sites due to gasoline constraints and convenience. No more waiting in lines now! The Red carpet was rolled out as the Blue re-useable JADO Express bags were being dropped off by various customers as I waited in line. I asked the recycling specialist about the program I purchased two myself at $5 each. One for my plastic and one for my aluminum CA-CRV material. All I have to do is fill up the bags during the week and drop them off and receive my payment by the end of the work week. EPIC!!!! EXTRAORDINARY!!!! THANKS JADO Recycling.

    Plenty of parking. Directly behind Safeway in the Branham Plaza.

    See all

    Clean, Friendly, quick. They pay cash on the spot for your cans and water bottles as well as glass. This place is a 10/10.

    Ask the Community - Jado Recycling

    Good Mirning! I read that you dont take Modelo beer or Jarritos soda bottles because they are from Mexico? I also read that you dont take plastic Ca redemption bottles with their caps on? Are these correct(on Yelp comments).

    We do take modelo beer. We take anything that has CRV on the label, so if the Jarritis soda bottle has CRV on the label, we'll take it.. First comers we'll take bottles with caps on. Thereafter please take caps off plastic bottles prior to coming.… 

    Wanted to make sure you are still by Lunardis? Hours still the same? Any other parking lot recyclers in San Jose? Coming from East of San Jose. Thank you🙂

    Yes, we're still by lunardi's at 4650 Meridian Ave in San Jose. Hours of operation are from 10 am to 5 pm, everyday. We only close on Thanksgiving day, Christmas day and New Year's day. As far as I'm aware we're only convenience zone recycler in SJ.

    “I been going here instead of Ranch Town (in Willow Glen) just because parking in the Lunardi's lot is way easier.”

    Favorite place to recycle cans. I had tried using those Olyns machines before but every time I…read morewould go, they'd be broken or get full before my turn in line. I only use the can machine here. It doesn't matter if the cans are crushed or not -- it's by weight. Just bring your cans over to the guy who helps place them in the machine to weigh them. It's super quick. Then you take your receipt to the Cashier to cash out. The line can get long, but I've never waited more than 10 minutes if there are 4 or 5 people in front of me. People who work here are really chill and nice. My mom is addicted to drinking diet sodas, so the equivalent of about 3 trash bags of her cans (about 8 pounds) made me $14! Someone's trash can be another person's treasure.

    Since I recycle at RTRC but once a year, I have to re-learn their process which includes lots of…read moregrunting and pointing. With every section you visit (ie. cans, plastic, glass, scrap metal), you receive a receipt which you keep. When you're done visiting the different stations, you take all your receipts to the cashier, who moves at the pace of a sloth, show your ID, sign a document, and receive your recycle cash. When I come here, one of my biggest gripes is that I take the time to separate my recyclables in bags and the employees throw them in a container with either cans falling out or glass bottles breaking when they don't make it into the weighing container and I lose out on my weight. Because I want to reclaim all the CRV that I paid on my wine bottles, distilled water bottles, and cans and plastic from my last party, I begrudgingly come here year after year. Recycling on a weekday is less crowded than a weekend. Lastly, be careful of all the fork lifts zooming about and people parking.

    I'm a volunteer at the Gunn High School machine shop . I took three barrels of aluminum chips and…read more solid scrap to Sims On Monterrey Rd. As it was my first time there, I went on line to check them out. A short time later I got a phone call from the office asking if I had any questions. I clarified which gate to use etc. When I got there it was very clean and clearly marked. Jesus met me and helped to unload my van. After some confusing on my part as to having chips mixed with solid metal, Jesus helped me sort out some of the solid aluminum. Next time I'll know. Jesus gets five stars from me.. He made the whole operation easy. The cashier lady was also very helpful in explaining the procedure for payment.

    "If you want grown-ups to recycle, just tell their kids the importance of recycling, and they'll be…read moreall over it."--Bill Nye Brought in a small bag of cans that we found whilst cleaning up our storage space at werk and were told they evidently don't take aluminum recycling anymore. Seriously. What the actual fuck? Then why is there a giant sign that says "ALUMINUM"* above the entrance? Why bother even having a recycling business when you don't accept the only metal, aside from copper, that's (monetarily) worth recycling??? Speechless we left the bag and asked them to give it to the first homeless person that darkened their door. It was probably less than $10 worth anyways fwiw... *sorry no pic my bad. #partyfoul
