I'm very impressed with the women that work there. I kind of didn't really know what was going on and screwed everything up and they helped me get through it. I appreciate it a lot

They were pleasant and good at processing my load on this trip, but I can't say the same about my last visit. You can get better prices elsewhere though.

X2 What Daniel says. You can call and ask, though. It's always *based* on market rates. Bear in mind any recycling yard needs to make money off the transaction, too.

Heather Updike | Oct 10, 2019

As already responded, you do not have to crush the cans. It just makes for less volume when you take the recyclables in. The weight is the same.
