Is it normal to block the entrance 5minutes before closing? I rushed down here with trash in my car only to find it blocked before 2PM Man at the front couldn't let me through just to discard of my trash. If you had closed at 2P I understand that but seriously minutes before 2? It's enough the hours are limited during the week.

This is one of the best and well-run recycling centers in Connecticut! When I dropped off items for the recycling center (example: monitors desktop computer broomsticks vacuum cleaners) each waste item was separated into their own individual shed (computers/laptops/electronics in one shed and TVs/monitors in another shed) and Dumpsters for household garbage. There are also book drop bins and sporting equipment drop bins. If you do a little bit of "dumpster diving" in the computer and TV shed you can find some nice laptops and desktops for FREE! As a tech enthusiast I found some Windows desktops Mac and Windows laptops laptop chargers and even a 24-inch DELL monitor! This is one of my favorite places to check out in Stamford!
