Nettie Net

Nettie Net (5/5 stars, a month ago): Recycle cardboard and box are easy and free I went in the morning so no car at all . I was able to recycle peacefully as there no parking spot for u to park .

Salvatore Basille

Salvatore Basille (1/5 stars, 3 years ago): Used to be the nicest dump and the easiest to use. Somebody was stupid and now they put tire blocks in every spot an additional 5+ feet away. I would gladly sign a waiver to use a "non-road block" spot and pull up to the dump area for ease.

Taylor Whipple

Taylor Whipple (5/5 stars, 9 months ago): The staff was so nice! I'd never needed to dump trash before but both the layout of the facility and the friendly staff made it a very simple process. Very glad I had the experience I did.
