I called on Friday to let them know I would be putting some items out on my driveway, near the road. I asked if they needed my address and the reply was ''No. We will be driving by all the addresses we mailed the flyers to.' I put everything I had, which was a good amount, out Friday night. Saturday came and by 2:00pm no one came by. I called their office and left a V-mail. Sunday came and I left another Vmail, expressing my dissatisfaction. Monday came and I took my recycling to Jennifer at SoCal Surplus & Ewaste. She's very accommodating. But they typically dont pickup unless you have a lot. I strongly recommend Jennifer! Since they never showed up, and never called me back, hence the single star!

This is the second time we've taken the time to gather the electronics and mixed wires and placed them at our curb with the big yellow card exactly according to the instructions on the card. This is the second time the electronics have sat there all day until we finally brought them back in at dark. What's happening here? Why are they sending these cards and instructions if they aren't actually doing pickups? Is it something they have to pretend to do to get e-waste recycling funds? Total waste of time and effort.

The place talks about some sort of "Nerd Candy" shop or something similar, which makes you think it's the business next door... but it's not. So you go in and ask about the "Nerd Candy", and if they sell candy at the tech recycling shop, but... it's just the name of their company. Then you walk back out the door and see that the same company has TWO different signs out front for TWO company names, but it's both in the same doorway and building. Finally, there's a sign that says "drop offs, use the back entrance" but this makes it sound like if you have an appointment to drop something off and leave with no explanation, you should use the back entrance, and as I had no appointment, I used the front entrance, which I got told to use the back entrance for. Better wording, like "if you have an appointment, use this entrance, if you don't, use the back" would make far more sense, but this is also a place that calls itself a brand name that sounds exactly like a candy shop at the same time as it sounds like a recycling shop. But the actual job they do, they did immaculately. No complaints there.

I did double check the hours on their website on Saturdays and it's noted they close at 1:45 pm. Place was pretty easy to get to and the parking wasn't too bad. Once you turn into the parking lot, there is a sign telling where to park. When I was there, it was a bit busier, but these guys work very fast. I was able to go grab the sorting cans and gather my recycling. The staff there were very friendly and professional from the guys weighing your items to the cashier. I wasn't sure about certain items, but they explained how to sort certain ones and which ones can't be recycled. My trip there was the fastest for any recycling place I've ever been to. This will definitely be my go to place from now on. I found this place pretty clean compared to all the others as well. Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Food: N/A

The inspector labeled it as "Irony Alum" just because of some iron screws that was magnetic, which they used as an excuse to downgrade it.

Bottom line: If you're just dumping scrap and don't care about the money, this place is fine. But if you have a substantial load you're looking to sell fairly, steer clear.

It feels strange to write a review of a landfill, or "the dump" as we call it, but after our…read morerecent visit, I had a few things that I wanted to share. Now, I have been to the landfill with my husband a few times over the years, usually when we have furniture to get rid of that is too damaged to see or donate. Our most recent visit was about two weeks ago. Our old patio furniture was disintegrating, and we had discolored cushions to get rid of. We tried to figure our a less bothersome or costly way to get rid of it, but, alas, we ended up at the landfill. The first thing we noticed was that the price was increased to $69 for cars and pickups. I thought that was super expensive, a large increase from our previous visit. Anyway, the landfill, as you may imagine, it massive. The roads are mostly dirt roads once you get inside. They are hilyl, have speed bumps and ditches. They also wet the roads to keep the dust from being a problem, so we ended up driving through water. You have to watch the signs carefully to figure out where to go. Once we got to to the area to unload, it was unclear where to go. The signs directed us one way, but the other people were unloading on the other side of the mounds of trash. My husband opted to follow the others, which is lucky, as we otherwise would have gotten in the way of the work trucks. At first, the people directing us to unload were no help at all. We had to guess where to pull up. Later, one guy came by and told us that we could just drop the items at the end of the truck and didn't need to move it our into the pile. That was helpful, as we then unloaded very quickly. My husband had lamented that he often ends up with flat tires after going to this landfill. Sure enough, a few days later, he found a screw lodged in his tire. It really could have come from anyway, but that is a rough road and there is lots of junk near the unloading area. I would not recommend going unless you have a truck, as there is no way my car would have made it. All in all, going to the dump is never fun. However, sometimes you just have no other ways to get rid of stuff.
