JCD Recycling Center 30052 (n/a)

I am reminded sometimes why some industries are just 3rd rate, 2nd class. I've literally only been to JCD once before, years ago. I just don't typically have a lot of metal to recycle. Well, I went again today, to recycle a bag of old trampoline springs. Probably about 20 lbs, so worth maybe $5. Still though, it was my $5. When I approached the man at the back of the building (with the red N. Oconee jacket), he asked if I wanted to get rid of the springs (duh, why do you think I'm here). He said I wouldn't get much for them, and I said that's fine. He proceeded to toss them in a bin, shake my hand, and say "have a nice day." I decided not to press for my money. Any business that assumes that I drove all the way to them only to give them something for free and not at least offer me money for my goods (regardless of how much), isn't worth my time. And they aren't worth yours.FYI - I had plans to drop that $5 off with a homeless guy who's been hanging out behind the Loganville Racetrac. Oh well.

I weighed 72 pounds of aluminum cans just before taking them to JCD. I know that my scales are accurate to 1.5%. That's 1.5 pounds per hundred. JCD weighed my cans at 55 pounds and the guy was doing his best to cover the ticket that had the weights on it. I had a few pounds of steel and an old broken lawnmower as well. Never did catch the price they gave me for those. They've always been good to me in the past and only off of my weight by a pound or so which i wasn't going to quibble over, but 17 pounds difference?! I guess the recycling business is in bad shape of they are now cheating they're customers by approximately a quarter pound per pound.
