It was our first and last time going there!! We were up next. The lady before us just unloaded her vehicle with at least 8 bags and the worker helped her sort thru and separate cans from plastic. So when it was our turn we unloaded and was told they don't separate and we had to move our vehicle to the front of the building and separate. We ended driving away. We didn't have but two bags to sort thru and the rest of our bags(6) were good.

Not just by ONE worker but by every single one I've encountered so far!!! 🤗 Hands down they have a very loyal customer right here. And my lil fur baby Honey Girl loves the young lady in the office to death!!!
