Was there Thurs June 5. First in line when it opened at 7a. Nice no $ to drop off old printer. But instructions to drop it off when there very confusing. Almost drove off small cliff they had there. Employee saw me getting confused and helped. Cashier at entrance polite and helpful. Would recommend this place. Off main road about half mile. That road windy and narrow in places.

Pros: recycling is free, just turn in on your left before you reach the weight scales and booth for regular dumping. They recycle cardboard, paper, glass for free, just break it down correctly to place in their containers and rinse bottles out. Prices for regular dumping in the facility were $7.80 today for a dozen bags of styrofoam/plastic wrap/household waste. The smell is not bad and was much worse in a Florida location I have dumped at before where you fought off birds, bald eagles, and worked right alongside heavy equipment at your own peril. This place doesn't do any of that to you and the attendant was polite as I paid and left. The woman was barely polite and kind of short but the young man was cordial and professional. Cons: they won't tell you where to go if you are new to this facility so make sure you ask. Turn left and head up the hill to circle around to the back of the building/warehouse, the signs will point you in, back into one of about ten parking spots, and toss your stuff over the yellow rails into the pit they will be working over with bull dozers down below. Wear a mask if you are sensitive to dust and toxins. I did not find the smell to be too bad and my nose is sensitive. Drive back the way you came in, drive one at a time on the scales, and pay your fee at the window.

It’s really important to recycle these days. This place makes it really easy to just pulling back into the area you need to recycle and drop it off!
