It was a little tricky to find but everyone there was super nice. I was able to recycle my old microwave for a very low fee. So much better than paying Best Buy $60 to do it. Definitely call ahead for instructions to get there rather than relying on Google maps.

Review

I'm in the process of selling my parents home that they lived in for since 1977. I found that I had propane tanks that I needed to get rid of the correct way. After talking the very friendly person on the phone I was told that they also will take e waste items. To top everything for a nominal fee they will come out and pick up the items for me. Awesome bonus. I was also told that they would call me a 1/2 hour before they arrived bigger bonus since I still work full time Monday - Friday. They should be picking up today. I'm waiting for a phone call and head over to the house.
