    We go there to recycle the glass bottles, plastic bottles, and cans for years. The location is at the entrance of Costco parking. They open every day and early morning. The staff are very friendly. The price is good. Especially Kevin, the manager is so friendly. They know how to take care of the business area, clean, well organized. Pros Location and service: 5 stars Price: good, reasonable

    Located behind Costco, their new location is still rather convenient (and since it's in the corner and away from the cars lining up for the tire center/gas, it's much safer imo). Kevin helped me out with my bottles/cans this time, but they've always had super friendly and consistent service.

    Great place. Nice nice people and good environment. It's clean and you have water tank to wash your hand! Best place in town

    Staffs are so nice and service so quick and location is clean and organized. Their value is fair too. This is located behind Costco Cypress CA.

    Quick and efficient - Kevin and his team are super helpful in answering any questions. I wasn't sure if a can I had was recyclable and Kevin went to the trouble of showing me how to tell if it was CRV eligible for future reference. They have loads of orange baskets to empty your recycles in, clear signage on what to do and what's eligible, and on weekends when there's a line, it moves fast. I like that the area is constantly being cleaned and soap and water is available for afterwards. It's located at the back corner of Costco, plenty of parking. You can enter via Costco way or the Costco entrance via Winner's circle.

    Nice staff and fast service!  Please save our environment and recycle.

    Kevin and crew never fail to make it easy and pleasant to unload my (usually) fairly large amount of crv.

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!

It is so conveniently located and easy to pull-in and get out. They've finally reopened under new management and I couldn't be anymore enthused to recycle again. Today was a Sunday and I was excited to see they were open till 345p. I already had recyclables separated. The guy helping me was super nice and quickly weighed my three loaded trash cans. I asked if the recycle used batteries, but they do not. Still great they take many other materials including cardboard. The cashier was very friendly as we bonded over the time change. With that said, I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Current CRV Rates: #1 Plastic $1.470 CRV Glass $0.102 Alum Cans $1.650 Highly recommended.
