No idea if that's their business plan or if the guy was just padding his own wallet at my naive expense). Yeah...if you use them, count the money while you're at the window. Also, the cashier made us wait while he watched TV and ate breakfast in the cashier's booth) Add to this that the place if filthy even by recycling center standards, and I'd say this place should be your last, worst option.

    They stop accepting customers 10-15 minutes before their posted closing time (5:00 pm). I drive…read moreall the way there to arrive at 4:45 and the guy at the gate would not let me in. Said to come back the next morning. My cans were already crushed and clean, ready to unload into what would have been one 32 gal trash barrell. To drive back the next day would use more gas, plus much more of my time to drive back out there. He was rude and dismissive. They do not observe the open hours they advertise. I've gone there for many years. I started when they had coupons in the Long Beach newspaper. Time to find a new place. Any suggestions? UPDATE: Just went to "Sunset Recycling Center" 5951 Del Amo Blvd, Lakewood, CA 90713 (Del Amo and Woodruff). Excellent service. Pleasant, quiet environment. Does not reek like "Good Earth". Highly recommend. Only 12 minutes from Good Earth.
