Aaron Decker (5/5 stars, a year ago): This place was a lifesaver when we first moved to Fort Collins! If you've ever moved you can remember how much cardboard you had once you got settled. It would have taken us weeks if not months to get rid of all the cardboard through the recycling bins at the house. We were able to take excessive amounts of cardboard to the recycling center and dispose of it properly. So grateful to have this service in Fort Collins! Facilities are well taken care of and it was very easy to drive up dump materials and drive away.

Chris Yates (5/5 stars, 7 months ago): Incredible experience! Never thought I'd say that about a public recycling center... I went to drop off a load of cardboard. While unloading the attendant came by and asked me if id like any help. I said sure and he grabbed the last load for me. It was a nice surprise and very helpful. I loaded up on free mulch on my way out. Excellent quality and I'll never need to buy wood mulch again!
