Daniel Roy (2/5 stars, 4 years ago): Opens at “9am” is a very rough estimate. The employees will often arrive after 915am and take another 30-45 minutes to open the gates. Wouldn’t suggest getting there before 10am unless you have up to an hour to sit around waiting.

Susan Hrdlicka (5/5 stars, 3 years ago): It's the best recycling center in the area with the lowest contamination rate. That being said people still drop in filthy containers and trash and other items that aren't acceptable. **Everything should be rinsed out PLEASE.** Otherwise what's the purpose? It brings contamination from 🐀. Accepted: flattened cardboard *emptied plastic tubs bottles and jugs with 1 2 5 symbol. Aluminum cans paper glass. Soft plastic is also taken in a separate bin. Not Accepted: styrofoam egg cartons hard plastic packaging trash to-go containers or cups tissue napkins pots. If in doubt ASK the attendants! Keep this the BEST recycling center in Oregon! It's a real treat to have it and if we all do our part it might add up to make a difference. HELP get So OR clean again!
