    This place does not deserve even one star. CHEAT! CHEAT! CHEAT!We used 2 different types of scales at home to weigh plastics bottles and aluminum cans. We got there before they were closed. My husband did not read about pounds and prices before signing the sheet, just got cash after correcting their calculation. I noticed the money we got quite a bit less than our calculation based on the weight we weighed at home. I walked back telling that guy that the weight was so much lighter than we weighed at home. The guy (with accent) became furious immediately screaming at us, said his scale was accurate and refused to re weigh the bottles and cans. The previous review said they probably did not do a good math. I believe they do this purposely. Other than they cheat you in weight, they also calculated wrongly if you don’t do math fast enough and correct them.I don’t know if there are reputable recycling centers exist. Possibly do not exist in Santa Clara county but AVOID THIS PLACE! We will try other recycling places in San Jose to see whether those places cheat as well.

    Extremely rude. Decided to park outside & walk my recycling in and the lady tells me “we’re not going to take your bottles because we already know the people that don’t have a car and you have a car. You have to drive in with your car” RUDE.

    Drop off experience was generally good. Line went quick. Easy to drop off and weigh Not happy with rate though. Math isn't great. Subtracted 20 lb for containers instead of 18 lbs so lost out on about $.25 per lb of plastics. Not going to fight about i t. As nice as it is to have a recycling place in gilroy and how important recycling is, it's a disappointment. Just go in knowing, you likely won't get crv.

    Martins is probably the only recycling center currently operating in Gilroy so there is always a line to get in. Today was relatively 'fast' as my total time from when I got in line to the time I drove off was 43 minutes. The main thing I dislike here is that I don't get a printout or any indication of HOW they arrive at the total cash I receive. EVERYWHERE else I've ever taken recycling has given me a slip indicating the weight of each category (aluminum, #1 plastic, and glass) along with the price per pound for each. Without this probably (hopefully) not but they could be short changing a person.

    if i can put negative 0 in this rating i will gladly put it. people and especially the manager is rude. not a friendly business at all. do your business in recycling some other place not here, you'll be happier if you do.

    I have been taking my recycling here for a while now and so far I have had a good experience. Sometimes there is a wait time but thats why I try to go early. People that work here are friendly and nice!

    I've been going this places for years cuz its the most convenient. I like the people that work there but I feel the people doing cashier is dishonest or they lack in math. Seems like they tend to shave couple lbs off.

    I just move to Gilroy and I took my can and plastic to Martin recycling. I had to wait almost 45 minutes to get in . They helped me out to unload my recycling. Very nice and professional staffs with their masks on. The cashier lady was very nice and helpful.

    I have my mom who lives in San Martin and I was looking to find a company to help me to remove bunch of old furniture and other stuff from her garage. I had few estimate which the one from Martin Recycling was much lower than others. They did the job in less than 2 hours. They did a great job, very professional. Thanks

    The man making the calculations is dishonest! Tried to tell me the plastic bags I brought my cans in each weigh a 1/2 lb and he did the math wrong based off the total weight. Shaved a few pounds off. When I questioned him he started yelling at me. I misread the the total weight at first then questioned the bag weight. Even if the bags weighed a 1/2 lb each he still shaved off a pound or two. When I got home I weighed an empty bag it weighed 2 ounces not 8!! In total I got shorted 3+ lbs for my cans, very dishonest! The man helping take the items from your vehicle is very nice.
