Staff is helpful and the area is well organized. I drop my Styrofoam old electronics and batteries off here. I also picked up my compost bucket to be part of the city's composting program.

This place is a blessing I use this site about twice a year wait time varies the most I have waited is 30 minutes. The man just asked what I'm dumping today I show him my I.D and he points me to the area to dump.

Almost always at least a little busy but they have lots of bays they keep it moving. It's great when you have big items or extra trash from cleaning and you don't have to sit on it for an extra week
