It's an adventure! AND...we love it! Most visits start with a parking attendant guiding us into their "camp chaos." Cars, trucks, cans and barrels comically scattered about like the final minute of a county fair's destruction derby. Once in, proudly stand trunk-side...grab your bag of cans and let the world know you have landed, this is a very proud moment...so share your victory. You parked! With filled plastic bags, in tow, we marched to the crushing area...standing at the ready while watching and "YELLING"at each other. The cans ride on a conveyor belt before falling to their death...screaming all the way. Huh? I said, "screaming all the way!" The attendants have always been kind and helpful...friendly beyond words. Today Nikki presented us with our financial reward...not only did she give us money, she offered a sincere and gracious smile while thanking "us" for our business. We have many recycling centers much closer to our home...but for years we trek to this can crushing circus of calamity. Their entire team has always treated us with respect, we have never had an unpleasant experience. Psssst...I would have offered a "5 Star" rating, but a better parking plan may earn them the 5th. read more

Modesto Junk Co. Recycling Center is my go to when I recycle. You pull up into the parking lot there are guides to help you park. There are a ton of big containers to place your recycling. So my last time there I showed up early at 8 am and there was a line on 9th street. They placed orange cones on the street for the cars waiting. The guide directed all of us waiting cars quickly and efficiently. I finished filling the containers and was waiting for the payout. There is a metal man sculpture which gives it a nice touch to the place. The cashier Janiese pointed to my Rick and Morty shirt. Recommending 10 East in Turlock because they have schezwan nuggets. It made me feel good to talk about Rick and Morty and getting cash for recycling. From start to finish within 15 mins. Remember Pickle Rick does recycling. Got to go get that Schezwan sauce Morty. read more

I had six bags of cans I needed to get rid of and I wasnt sure where to take them. A lot of recycling places only have one person to help you and I was dreading waiting in line. I saw a coupon in a circular and thought I'll give them a try. These guys are AWESOME! Easy to find, they even have a special lane to help you get off the street into theyre lot. A guy showed me where to park. Lots of room and there were plenty of people to help you. Everyone was soooo nice. I have to give special credit to Nikki at the counter though. She has the most wonderfull smile and she went out of her way to help me. THANK YOU NIKKI! I will bring all my recycling to these guys from now on. read more

This place gave great service. Everyone there was extremely helpful and very friendly. The wait time wasnt bad at all. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to scrap or recycle material they give good payouts and are fast and easy. We went there recycling cans and bottles we came out with 80 bucks because we drink lots of soda and water so they took all our recyclables and gave us a nice payout. We also did something good for the planet app it's a win win. I like this place a lot it's close to my house and would definitely go again. read more

This is by far the best recycling center ever, not only are they kind and courteous, the money is out right the best. i mean really $2.10 a lb for cans and then on occasion they even put out specials and coupons to increase that amount. last time I recycled there i received more money than what i thought i would ever get. I highly recommend to anyone who is recycling savvy to give Modesto Junk Company a try, you will enjoy the customer friendly employees and the quick in and out in less than five minutes. NOT TO MENTION THE $$$$$!!! read more

Modesto Junk gets 5 STARS!!! Every time I go there, their staff is very pleasant, courteous and helpful. I am always greeted quickly with a warm smile, shown a spot to park and the attendant(s), always check with me to see how I am doing and offer their assistance and help. The weigh master(s) are the same, greet me with a smile and offer to help me, ask if I have a coupon and then give me kind instructions for what the cashier will need from me. Thank You, Ingleburg, Chris and Janiese for GREAT service today. read more

Brian H. is right in his review. This IS the best place around. They do actually help you out, show you where to park, where to bring your materials, and the best part is they pay the MOST money for your recyclables - - it's like way more here - - awesome! This place keeps busy (because well, duh!, they pay the most!), but they still seem to get you in and out really fast. These guys are stand-up, first rate. read more

We would also like to recognize the cashier who went by the name of Robert T he was so friendly and polite to us he really made a diffrance in our day read more

Always pleased with the prices. It is not like the DMV. There is someone there to help you in less than a minute. The evaluation of the metal is fair. I do miss the CRV buy back and the parking lot could be a little cleaner (my tires). Those two picayune items kept me from giving 5 stars. I would not hesitate to recommend this recycler. Scrap On Modesto Junk! read more
