Low-key spot off of Dino Drive in Elk Grove…read more Stopped in to recycle a large quantity of cans, and glass and plastic bottles. Just to get a fee dollars back, vs paying for it all to be taken away by the city each week. Wasn't sure what to expect, but saw a number of other people dropping out their slown stuff as well. So it seemed like a pretty popular location to bring recyclables. We were in an out in less than 20 minutes with a few $ back in our pockets.

Parking is typically pretty easy to find unless they're crazy slammed. They're always well organized and staffed. They have plenty of cans to sort your goods and a large trash can to throw away your dirty bags. They even sell beverages for a very reasonable price. They cash you out on site so you don't have to go inside a grocery store or hope they have enough to pay you. I'll definitely be back when the need arises. I drive across town since they're consistently the best run facility in town.

It is a tiny place with limited parking. But since they are "hidden" in the back, they were not busy when I got there. It was my first time there and I didn't know what the process is. I parked and walked to the front. There was only one worker there. His name was Michael. I asked him how does it work. He helped me while telling me what to do. Michael was very fast, friendly and patient with me. After he weighed all my recyclables, he had me to go to the front with him so that he can show me how he got the price. Very honest of him. He even told me that they have other locations around sac. I will definitely come back here again.

This place only serves Elk Grove residents. You must bring your utility bill or Driver's License…read moreshowing an Elk Grove address. This collection center accepts various recyclables such as card board, metal, yard waste, dirt/concrete, appliances, and e-waste. They also accept hazardous waste such as batteries, chemicals, motor oil, coolant, oil filters, and paint, etc. Propane tanks smaller than the 20lb size can be disposed here. Styrofoam is no longer accepted. Service is always good as the workers are efficient at unloading hazardous waste and directing customers on where to place the recyclables. All recyclable items are placed into large 20' roll off bins. The yard waste and metal bin is very tall (approximately 6' tall) so it is easier to dispose of yard waste using a truck and standing in the bed to throw the items in. Gasoline can also be disposed here, but if you want to keep your gas can it requires coming back at a later date to pick it up after it has been emptied. Tires are accepted once a month during the tire recycling events. There is a limit for how many tires can be disposed.

Told us he'll be with us shortly as there was someone in front of us. Courteous and polite guy. Seems to be working alone, at least for today. We only had plastics and glass.

As soon as I got there a nice young msn approached us to help with sorting which is very helpful. I had a few cans of plastic and one small load of cans not even half way.
