The site hours are not always consistent, I usually drop off recycle items on a Saturday before…read more12pm. I attempted to drop off at 2pm this last Saturday only to find them closed. While the site is nothing to brag about it's the only site within a 30 mile radius where you can do recycling. They require glass to be separated based on colors and will remove anything not reflecting a CA recycle tag but that is to be expected. The employees are primarily Spanish speaking but that have no impact on conducting business. Parking can be a bit tricky since multiple businesses are located within the main building. If your vehicle is large then turn around in the lot may be challenging. I will try to add photos and revise the phone number that no longer appears to be working...though that may have been intentional. Hope this helps other locals out.

A-1 Metals is one of the five recycling centers left in San Luis Obispo County. They are located a…read morefew miles north of Paso Robles on the western side of the 101 freeway. The employees are friendly. The lines move quickly & efficiently. After the weighing of the materials, one receives their cash refund in the office. Consumers pay California Redemption Value (CRV) when they purchase beverages from a retailer. The beverage container recycling program was created in 1986. Refunds are now by weight of the materials, instead of by the size of a container, as the Assembly Bill originally called for. The program includes aluminum cans and glass & plastic bottles. Check the label to see if a container is eligible for CRV, as some beverage containers are not eligible (milk, food, wine, spirits, etc.). The container will say CA Redemption Value, California Cash Refund, CA CRV or CA Cash Refund. A-1 Metals also sells salvaged used auto parts.

That way you can dispute the weight they tell you. The last trip I made, to a different recycling location, an honest one, was less and I was paid almost twice as much. This happened to me another time at this location a couple years ago. I hoped it had changed but still the same here. They will short you if they can. I won't trust them again. Dishonest business.
