Went on a Saturday afternoon. They collect electric waste, batteries, cardboards, paints, syringes, medicine, motor oil and coolants. Almost everything. Clear instructions.

Took a little while to get to where we could empty our cars. People were keeping distance, and almost everyone was wearing a mask correctly. All employees were correctly masked and very helpful.

Just getting compost so came at 6:45 to avoid the rush of commercial users. Still in line to get into the facility 50 minutes later. A complete cluster when it comes to operations management.

I needed to drop off small amount of wood and some styrofoam but they charge you prohibitively high price of $44 for that. Now it will have to go to waste. Clearly they do not care much about keeping this place clean. Plus a guy at the cardboard dropoff place told me I can drop off the wood around the building... I wasted half an hour in the line just to learn it is not free.
