    This was an efficient operation. Easy to find behind Costco. Polite staff and convent hours. No complaints.

    I strongly believe this location is not accurately paying people for their recycled goods…read more Consistently I have received FAR less than I was owed based on their listed prices. Today I brought in 4 & 1/2 trash bags full of items which consisted of one whole trash bin full of aluminum cans, one half trash bin full of plastic #1 and one half trash bin full of plastic #2 as well as a handful of glass items. Usually I could get anywhere from $8 (MINIMUM) to $12 depending on the items/price/etc. But I received $3.85 for it all. I asked to confirm with the person running the recycling area whether or not they included all of my items because it looked a lot less than it was supposed to be and they assured me that they did. On the receipt it shows a lot of my items have been zeroed out meaning they didn't pay me for what they should have paid me for. Instead they chose to scrap it or something else. When I go to a alternate location of this exact company I get twice as much money consistently. Someone at one of these locations is doing something severely wrong, whether that be overpaying at one location or severely underpaying patrons at one location. It's infuriating. I wasted my time and my effort and potentially my money because I turned in recycling that only netted me less than $4. This is ridiculous.

    Fast, clean, and friendly service every time. I have never waited more than ten minutes, even when…read moreit is busy. The staff is always helpful and quick to answer questions if you are not sure what qualifies. They took the time to explain what to keep and what actually pays out, especially with the newer California rules that now include more container types. I had no idea that one gallon juice jugs, wine boxes, and other odd-shaped containers are now eligible for CRV. Good to know. The process is simple. Signs are clear. Sort your material, they weigh it and pay cash on the spot.

    I got to this spot 8:55am (5mins before their posted opening time) and no employees to be seen :(…read more I waited until 9:10am then 2 workers pulled into the lot and strolled over. Ricardo, that opened the bin, saw i was waiting first and i asked him how much time he needed to get ready to open and he said '5 minutes and I'll help you out' so i waited for him before starting to stack my bottles. While he was setting up, I asked if it was okay if I gave them a case waters that they can keep for the heat and he said ok, took the waters, then walked away from the bin and stared a conversation with some towing guy nearby. The other guy (Angel i think? It was hard to understand his words) finally mustered the courage to come to work as well, and he put out the barrels and asked who was first and everyone pointed at me. I said I was ready--then he proceeded to help out the 2 other customers :( 'Angel' and 'Ricardo' were disappointing on this Friday Aug 22, 2025. I am no judge of their character but the odor they had, the slurring in their speech, and the speed at which they moved woulda had me guessing they were hungover or drugs :( I'm not even sure they typed in the numbers correctly--the way they both were standing there staring at the keyboard. Maybe the waters shoulda went to some homeless folks...

    I've had nothing but exceptional service here with Angel and Ricardo. They go out of their way to…read moreassist clients with the bins and have always been personable, patient, and professional. This location is very convenient, and since many communities don't offer recycling bins in the area, you can collect your $ back by ensuring you take your recyclables to the right place. Even though the lines can be a bit long at times, it always moves at a quick pace. There are definitely many regulars that return to this center, which speaks for the quality and efficiency of its services.

    I had the most terrific service provided by your employee Carlos!…read moreHe went out of his way to help me find the information I needed with great communication skills. He followed up more than a couple of times, he was there when he said he would be, so very time conscious, responded very quickly, better than to be expected considering how busy he was and I could tell, the place was hopping and everybody was very kind, more than what I would consider to be excellent service. If every business could be this good, wow!, especially in these times. It was very refreshing to me after being so frustrated with everything I had been dealing with lately, and seemingly going to hell in a handbasket. I love you guys, especially Carlos! You guys are lucky to have an employee like him, I would hire him away from you if I was in need, he was that good! I'm sending everyone I ever speak with to you for a fantastic experience and to get a lesson in service, on how it's supposed to look and feel like. Great Job, keep it up!

    I have been to recycling places before so I at least know what to do. I am not sure if they were…read moreshort staffed or because it was about an hour before closing but there were not a lot of workers there. I got in and out fast so my experience was just fine. I just was worried if someone there for the first time went... it would have been intimidating for them. I received a lot more money than I thought I would but then again... i haven't recycled in years.

    I had a great experience with Junk King Orange County. I needed a king-size Sleep Number bed with…read morean attached heavy steel adjustable base removed so a new mattress could be delivered. The company originally scheduled to remove the old bed told me at the last minute that they only remove mattresses--not full Sleep Number setups with adjustable bases. After a quick Google search, I found Junk King. I went to their website and was able to schedule a pickup in less than two hours, which was incredibly convenient. I also decided to have them remove a few other old pieces of furniture while they were here. When the team arrived--Ryan M., Jose G., and Abner M.--they were polite, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. That Sleep Number setup is extremely heavy, but they handled it efficiently and safely. They were careful not to damage the walls, wore protective foot covers, and worked quickly while still being respectful of the home. I was genuinely impressed by their professionalism, hard work, and positive attitude. The whole process was smooth and stress-free. I'll definitely be using Junk King again soon to help clear out some junk in my backyard. Highly recommend them if you need reliable and professional junk removal in Orange County.
