Service requested was perfect. A few workers and a volunteer helped to unload my full truck of cans and plastics. The price per lbs. was great. read more

Jl Recycling - Price as of 5/23/26 - Recycling Center Near Me - Antioch, California

This review is for their location on Somersville. Been here a few times because it was either here or Pavels since Delta Scrap in Oakley closed. First time we went here, we filled up 2 of their blue bags and 2 of their bins with empty, crushed plastic bottles. I know that plastic bottles are light but I crushed them down so I fitted more in those containers had they not been. You can't see the scale because when they put the container on top, it blocks it. They gave me $54 and no receipt. $54/$1.46=36.986 lb for 2 big blue bags and 2 bins of empty and crushed plastic bottles?! On another visit we filled up 1 of their blue bag with empty and crushed aluminum cans. This time they gave us a receipt because he asked for ID since it was over $100. Their blue bag is so huge and two of them struggled trying to put it on the scale but it only weighed 81 lbs of empty, crushed aluminum cans?! Don't plan on going back because I finally got rid of all my recycling that accumulated since the closure of Delta Scrap but for those who plan on going here or at Pavels, if you have a scale at home, weigh it before going. read more

The staff is fast and they help you out when sorting. You can recycle anything that is CRV recyclable which includes glass and hard liquor bottles. It's kind of gettoh in the area but it's worth recycling at if you have a lot of stuff. I got $24 for just a few bins of recycling. read more

See all

Today was my first this at this Recycling place , I dropped 2 big blue bags that they use to place plastics, full of plastic , math is not adding up and i don't see the first bag that the guy weight on my receipt he is paying less than the prices that are state on the door , when it was my turn on line , the guy was on his phone ignoring me until he finished using his cell phone , at weight time was awkward , scale is not visible for costumers , I snicked in to see one of the weights of plastic and on my receipt he paid it as glass which is way cheaper, first and last time coming to this business, karma , God and time is going to get them back if they are not honest. Now thinking to place a complaint at costumers rights only one star for the other guy who help me placed recycle into blue big bags read more

Revisted the recycling and I am noticing that the weighing wasn't the same and I got paid less. I wasn't so sure if it has something to do with the value of alluminum and plastic has dropped or that the way they scaled isn't properly set up. It used to be a better place until i got harassed by one of the other customers. It's the only place I know that is locally near me with recycling but the other place I liked better has closed down. I am changing my review as I also noticed the other folks near me are alsoing having problems as well. My apologies everyone as I thought this was a good alternative and turns out it wasn't v_v I will try checking out Pavels Recycling instead! heard better reviews over there ! read more

I would give them negative stars if I could. First time coming to this establishment last week. The two men wouldn't even speak to me. The older man was smoking as he walked around. I am asthmatic and had difficulty breathing because of this. THEN the same guy went over to a plastic bin and began pounding glass with a metal rod! Glass was flying out of the bin! It's an accident waiting to happen! I and a lady behind me had to turn our backs in fear we would get glass in our face or eyes. When it was my turn to go up, I told him that I would appreciate it if he stopped doing that while I was being serviced. He did comply and began to sweep up the flying glass pieces on the ground. I shouldn't have to ask him to stop. It's something that could be done when there's no customers around or after hours. Common sense. read more
