Jim Crooks

Jim Crooks (5/5 stars, 8 months ago): Good experience. I had 4 burnt out long florescent light bulbs to dispose of. I drove up to the gate and a guy came out of his guard booth to my car. I asked if I could drop bulbs off here. He said yes and took them from me so I didn't even need to go inside.

Tom

Tom (1/5 stars, a year ago): The first time I went here it was ok. The second time the cardboard bin was full on a Friday afternoon and had to drive 5 miles to another center. The third time I learned it was closed on Sunday. You’ve gotta be kidding me. Overall recycling in Lubbock is a total joke but then I get the impression that no one in Texas cares at all about the environment.

Max

Max (1/5 stars, a year ago): Wow…just wow. Our tax dollars go to the Keep Lubbock Beautiful campaign and the staff here is absolutely awful. We were treated like convicts because we wanted to recycle some cardboard already collapsed and ready to be recycled. Never again. Will do my part to keep Lubbock looking like Mars…
