If you plan to recycle in Anchorage then you'll be here at the WestRock Anchorage Recycling Center often. Located right behind the NAPA Auto Parts building are multiple bins for glass, cardboard, mixed paper, newspaper, tin, aluminum, plastic bags, and plastic containers. For more information on what you can recycle you'll want to read more on the WestRock Anchorage Recycling Center website. Try to park your vehicle close to the containers, but give yourself room to get out. Be aware here, because there is very little space to drive when both sides are full of parked vehicles.

Anchorage does not recycle plastic bags or any plastic containers except 1 and 2 bottles and jugs. All paper except corrugated cardboard is simply "mixed paper"

Had an entire truck full of aluminum rims I brought from kasilof because they told me 51 cents per lb for aluminum rims. I have a scale at home for Weighing scrap, so before I make the long trip to anchorage I have a good idea of what I'm going to get paid. They did not let me see the weight on their scale which was odd to me, and they started grabbing my rims and weighing them while i was still unloading. I go inside to get my check and they listed my rims as a lower grade aluminum about 20-25 cents less per pound and underweighed me about 350 lbs from what I weighed on my scale at home. I also had a bucket of brass fittings that weighed about 25 lbs that didn't even show up on my receipt and they claimed to never have seen it. It was the first time I went there, and definitely the last. Very unprofessional and don't care about the customer. Instead of fixing the problem they argued with me about why they were right even tho it's not what they said on then phone when I called them before heading there. Shady operations and scummy tactics by the people who operate this joint. They butter you up and make it sound promising, and once they have your scrap, they kick you to the curb. Stay away from this place if your a metal scrapper
