Austin Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center

Dropped off electronics 10am April 4th and staff directed process poorly and the communication that actually happened was disrespectful and overty antagonistic. More of an experience I would anticipate at a county jail.

I love the convenience and think it's a great service. However I'd like to make a complaint that the Styrofoam crushing machine was releasing LOTS of concentrated stryrene gas (literally yellow gas billowing out the machine). This is a highly toxic and carcinogenic gas. The man packing the Styrofoam into the machine should never put up with this (poor guy). The issue here is that the machine is overused and overheating causing the Styrofoam to melt upon contact with the metal. Y'all need to invest in a 2nd machine. When the 1st one gets too hot switch it off and move to the other. Expecting the shift workers (and public) to be exposed to illegal amounts of styene gas is pure negligence. Thanks for taking my concerns into account.

I had a stack full of stryofoam this year and decided to just take it to them. Pretty easy process by appointment only. Employee are nice since there weren't much to do and they were waiting at their respective stations.
