I needed a place to recycle single-use batteries and other stuff Best Buy won't recycle and luckily…read morethey take most things here. Just check their website before you go so you don't waste a trip *NOTE = For Household recycling, they are really only opened Wednesdays - Saturday's. I showed up on Monday looking like an idiot and had to come back again on Wednesday. Someone posted a picture on yelp with the hours and I think they are accurate. General Process: 1.) You turn into the center 2.) Household Recycling is immediately on the left 3.) You back into a designated spot and open your trunk 4.) Fill out the recycling form (Name, Address, Signature, etc.) Pretty painless and I thought it was great. If it's not out of your way and you want to try to help the environment rather than throwing it in the trash, this is the place to go for Fremont Residents.

I rarely leave reviews, but after reading some of the negative ones here, I felt like I should…read moreshare my own experience because it has been very different. Today, March 11, 2026, was my fourth visit, and I usually come here because it's the closest recycling center to my place. Every time I've come, the experience has been smooth and hassle-free. The staff are friendly, helpful, and work efficiently to keep the line moving. The man who helped me today was especially professional. He came over, helped sort through my bags, and carefully checked for unacceptable items more than once. I actually appreciated that attention to detail because it showed he was doing his job properly. A few of my plastic bottles were returned, but that was perfectly fair since they weren't CA CRV eligible. I still walked away with $17.75, so no complaints from me. One thing I'd recommend is sorting your recycling before you arrive. It saves both your time and the staff's time, and it makes the whole process a lot smoother. Parking is a little limited, but that's really my only minor complaint. Other than that, I've had nothing but positive experiences here, and I'd definitely return. I came right around closing time, so there was plenty of parking and no waiting line.

Man said he was going based off what was in the computer. After seeing the price difference I wanted to separate the copper to make a couple extra dollars since I had it mixed.
