    PONCE PAYOUT
    Alvaro M.

    Count your money at the window! That's all I wanna say. Today the total amount payed for recycling was 22.63 and only 12.63 was issued. Be careful and make sure you get what you deserve!

    Recycling Motto: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Location/Parking: Towards the back of H Mart. Parking can be found in the parking structure. Ambiance/Decor: Not much ambiance here. Similar to all other recycling places. Order Of Operations: 1) Park your car 2) Get in line. Proceed to get a empty trash can and separate your recyclables. 3) Get your voucher that has the total amount you get. Print your name, sign, and date your life away. and collect yo monies. Service: Service was good. The place makes it easy to recycle and most importantly, you don't have to interact with the workers. Start time depends on when the guy with the laptop shows ups. If you get there early, you might be waiting for 5 to 10 minutes. Recycle For Thought: Don't mind using their services again when I have enough recyclables to recycle.

    They pay cash on the spot for your recyclables enough said! No more handing in your aluminum cans and getting a voucher to go into a grocery store to claim your payment. This place is located on the side of HMart by their parking structure. They do not allow grocery carts to bring your recyclables. This place accepts a large variety of recycled from various plastic bottles, glass, and your regular aluminum. Check your plastic containers from your juices, creamers, and order liquids. Most can be recycled even if you didn't pay a CRV for them. Think about all that waste going to the landfill when most containers can be recycled! I had bundles of these tiny Yukult like yogurt drink containers and i paid $0.05 crv for each of them. Most recycling center at a Ralph's or Vons do not accept them, but this place does! This place has a lot of bins for you to fill and sort. They will weigh each bin, notate the total and give you a receipt. And yes! Cash on the spot! Highly recommend this recycling center!

    Along with my hard seltzer kick came along the collection of cans. We started a recycling bin at home to collect cans, help the planet, and get some extra $$ for the holidays. The current price is $1.65/lb. A whole 22-gallon crushed can bag gave us about $23. This recycling center is located behind the H-Mart off of Huntington Drive. It's fast, efficient, and a good way to help mother earth!

    13 Barrels of Soda Bottles added up to 46.1 pounds.  They counted Soda Bottles, Juice Containers and Water Bottles all as #1.PET

    Ask the Community - Ponce Recycling Center

    Do they do metal recycling? I want to take my old garbage disposal somewhere to recycle.

    I think it's just aluminum cans, plastic, and glass bottles - including non-redemption like wine bottles. Unfortunately, no one answers the phone there.

    Are they open Sundays?

    Yes..7 days a week

    Do you take brown paper bags?

    No, this is a small recycling center behind a super market. It only takes aluminum cans, plastic milk containers, soda bottles and water bottles, and some kinds of glass beer bottles at this location.

    Does this place take white paper?

    No, this is a small recycling center behind a super market. It only takes aluminum cans, plastic milk containers, soda bottles and water bottles, and some kinds of glass beer bottles at this location.

    I usually go to the Monterey park location and did not realize they have a location in San Gabriel!…read moreThe service was good! And the wait wasn't too bad! Would definitely come back here to recycle my bottles and cans.

    This is my go to recycling center. There is only one guy working there so be patient. There is…read moreusually a line of people who wait, so to secure your spot, start by placing a few bags that you can hold and bring them over to the line. I brought a small dolly with glass bottles and a little bit of plastic bottles and 4 cans (which i gave to someone who collected more than me). Pro tip: separate your glass by color. Brown, green, clear, etc. Prior to coming to this location. They also do not accept milk cartons and olive oil glass bottles. They separate their glass by color, and if you dont have them separated, they will make you do it there. The only hard part is that you can't separate them until they have bins available for you to use and separate them. Suggestions: you may want to bring some ear plugs because the clinging of the glasses can pierce your ear drums. A hat is always nice because they only have one canopy to provide shade. A small portable chair to sit as you wait for others to turn theirs in and maybe a fan of some sort for the hot days. They dont have many trash cans to throw away your bags or cardboard boxes, so you may need a clean bag to store all these and dispose of it at a later time. Hand sanitizer or gloves because you will be grabbing dirty trash cans or these wired baskets as you bring your piles to the guy. They weigh your piles by categories and pay you cash in the end. Carry some spare change, some of each would be good (pennies, dimes, nickles, quarters) because they may just round up and give you a solid bill.
