PickupsAreNotTrucks (1/5 stars, 11 months ago): They want you to recycle and properly dispose of hazardous waste but they’re hardly ever open only take 5 gallons at a time and they’ll fine you for dropping things off after hours. The place is stupid. They basically force you to not get rid of hazardous waste properly. Dump your coolant in a ditch away from animals please. That’s apparently what they want. Last time I was there they refused 50 gallons of my coolant and several of my used batteries. A 10 minute drop off turned into a 3 hour ordeal running around all over Fargo trying to properly get rid of waste. Thankfully I burn used oil. I don’t live in Fargo so I don’t bring them my 5 quarts of oil every evening after an oil change. I collect 55 gallon drums and bring it when I do come to Fargo. Also my 1 semi truck holds 12 gallons of coolant and 10 gallons of oil on its own let alone all the other vehicles I have. Don’t even waste your time. They clearly don’t want your hazardous waste they make that crystal clear. They want you to throw it away or dump it down the sink. Pretty irritating if ya ask me. I care about our earth but if you’re gunna make it impossible to dump well… that’s your decision not mine.

Justin Ottesen (1/5 stars, a year ago): went to drop off some materials and the 2 guys in the drop off area were incredibly rude for no reason. The one that spoke with me asked questions but completely ignored my response and then told me I should have just thrown the SLA resin I brought in into the trash despite it being highly toxic to wildlife. It's regrettable that this is the only location I know of in town to properly dispose of said materials as I'm not convinced that it was actually properly dealt with. The other individual working that did not speak with me instead came out not even a minute after I returned to my vehicle as I was looking up directions to my next destination and made impatient gestures for me to leave as if I were blocking somebody else from getting in despite me being in the parking bay and nobody else being present at that time.

carl thronson (1/5 stars, 10 months ago): Horrible experience today. Out of sheets and place made me nousios with headache being in there for five minutes. All those guys should be fired or put on a pickup garbage truck for not airing out building on July 19
