Dishonest estimates/Be aware I brought in three huge bags of aluminum cans, glasses, and all accepted recyclables in February this year. These bags were so heavy I could barely carry them myself being a lady petite built. He place the sorted cans and glasses etc on the scales, I never got to see the weighted numbers they were facing his side. Hidden was never showed me the weights. After all, I was only given $10 for all the three large bags of recyclables I brought in. Anybody with common sense and experience would know they cheated for giving such low amount for the quantities I brought in. Will not be coming back to this place. I will be taking my hard accumulated recyclables elsewhere to people business whom deserve my trust and loyalty.

The staff there is wonderful! We had so many cans and bottles we had to make three trips. Everyone there was friendly, helpful and efficient! The cashier, Linda came out to greet us...she thanked us for choosing their business and asked us to come back. We will certainly return!

I brought 97 Plastic bottles in, i got paid $4.41. And the staff who named Sat, is very rude too. California local have paid CRV 10cents for a bottle for many months already, and they are still paying recycler less than 5cents a bottle. Good business I guess.

This place will pay you what your recycling is worth. But honestly I've noticed that when it comes to your metals like copper and brass, they won't tell you the difference in those two and weigh them together to where you will be charged scrap metal instead of only brass or copper. Scrap metal costs way less then what it would be if it was only copper or clean brass. And they will NOT tell the customer the difference. So they'll rip you off on like 5 dollars worth of clean copper or brass.

As far as I know, they take every kind of metal, cardboard, and most (if not all) plastics with the ♻️ recycling symbol. They are competitive with other recycling places in regards to $ for your recyclables. And all the guys that work there are very helpful. Especially Oscar and Jose 👍

Everyone's love is chosen by everyone. I don't mean anyone~ Oh, I can only talk about personal thoughts. It doesn't mean the public. Taste is my personal thoughts are different. Each family has a set of dishes and flavors. The price is different. I can only say that I don’t like too much oil. It’s too salty. Maybe everyone will be surprised. It’s not surprising that I just eat too oily and too salty. ~ belly) pulls, so I only say what I feel, but I don’t say that the restaurant will be like this. You should pay attention to your stomach~喔 I am giving a certain restaurant face. I don't want to go to that house. It will be me.
