    The crew at Simply Recycle include Dave's mom Galena too!
    Ronnie B.

    The only one of its kind in California! What a great resource for us here in Fair Oaks but well worth the trip for you to visit Simply Recycle! Supervisor Dave and crew are so hospitable, helpful and honest giving you every opportunity to get back all the CA redemption value you paid for when you purchased your beverages! The state of the art recycling facility is for beverages only including bottles! DO NOT crush your plastics or cans as they are sent down to a machine that automatically reads the UPC code and gives you the exact amount you paid for it, records the total onto a receipt that you acknowledge, sign and redeem for cash! If you do have crushed items, it is weighed and registered for a receipt in the same way, but you get more back if the item Is not crushed. For example crushed plastic water bottle: 2 cents vs 5 cents not crushed! Simply Recycle is the vision of owner Ivan P, who saw the concept in Canada and brought the business to California! Ivan and brother Dave actually grew up in the Fair Oaks area and the store is in the old Blockbuster where they would come to get videos! The immaculate facility is indeed a business gem serving a two fold purpose of recycling and providing fair financial refund for its customers! Simply Recycle is open Monday thru Friday from 9 am to 4 pm and on Saturday from 9 am to 3 pm. What a fabulous, purposeful business addition to California- hopefully more will be emerging for all of the state!

    Helpful staff! They helped me load everything into the machine and it was so easy! It's the only place I'd return to do my recycling.

    Ask the Community - Simply Recycle

    What do you mean that they reject smashed cans and bottles? I always smash them in order to get more bottles and cans into my garbage bags for transporting them in my car?…

    We can absolutely help you Recycle any smashed beverage containers. We just won’t be able to run them through the machine. We put them on the scale so you will still get paid out for them.

    Do the tops need to be removed from the bottles?

    You can leave the caps on. They will not be rejected with the caps on. We always leave our caps on and have had no problems.
