They need to have an additional location in Daly City for just cans and bottles. The recycling place in Daly City has poor service compared to this one.

Great place to recycle scrap and crv alike and they usually pay better than Aaron metals who touts the highest prices paid in the bay plus they are nice and fair but you gotta sort your own scrap.

Best place to exchange your recyclables for cash now. Take a bin and fill it up.

Get there early. Seperate before hand if possible. 3 day hold on all copper. Look out for nails and screws when driving vehicle in yard. Not the highest prices for recycling but very much accessible otherwise. As of recently began recycling computers, laptops, hard drives. This place will pay you for these items. If I'm not mistaken it's $.20 per pound for computers and I think $.40 per pound for hard drives. They also take car batteries. Depending on weight but I'd say about $5 per battery.

Do I get the cash immediately

Matt Weatherford | Aug 24, 2019
Heather Inamasu | Aug 24, 2019

For all ferrous metals ie: cast iron, steel, tin, unprepared scrap metals, all electric motors and appliances with compressors removed, cans and bottles and non-ferrous metals; lead and aluminum only will get you cash on the spot after being weighed. Non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass and copper wires prepared and unprepared, they will only give you up to $20 dollars of the weight in cash that day And a receipt that you must return with after three days to collect the rest of what you are owed. The three day wait period is so they can verify that what you turned in wasn't collected through some sort of crime. None of these restrictions apply if you are a business with a business license. Make sure you bring a current California drivers license or state issued id or they will turn you away.

What is the reason for showing identification at this facility?

Mickey | Aug 23, 2020
Lisa R. Veneziano | Aug 23, 2020

Because there are people who steal copper piping, wire, etc.from construction sites, or break into building supply businesses to steal copper as it has a high recycle value. Also some persons raid recycling centers & steal recycling that's already been paid out for. Especially aluminum. Not everyone comes by their recycled goods honestly. Sad but true. Does that answer your question. I hope so.

Jason Nichols | Sep 27, 2021
Betty L | Sep 27, 2021

Every seller must sort in advance to avoid mixed wire pricing. If Zarc is going to see it mixed up, the seller will get the lowest price at a mixed wire rate. No difference than scrap metal.

Plastic water bottles, do you take them with the top on or without the top? Please advise?

Lana Appenrodt | Aug 23, 2020
Lisa R. Veneziano | Aug 23, 2020

You must remove tops because they jam the crusher. You can recycle the tops as well just separately. You get more for weight of tops than the bottles oddly .

Yes, they will pay you for the value of the metal. But they must have the valves open to show they are empty. Propane retailer/ wholesaler Companies will pay for uncrushed recycled tanks sometimes.

I don't know..I am not sure if they take tv's or if they do pick up...I don't think they do. I've only seen drop off at the location.. I believe that they've a website that can answer that. If not I'm know they SSF Scavenger has a few locations that you can drop off and I know that if its working a monthly "goodwill"like organization does pick up in south city.
