The forst time i went here the 2 young men were sitting i asked them about recycling questions one stood up and came to help. Today i went here again and all i say was a gentleman glued to his phone whe older ladies brought stuff in a bag and put it in the bin and also i brought in a TV i took it out and placed it in the bin not a peep out of him nor did he move. Its so sad that ppl dont do their jobs well these days.

This is not a very customer friendly operation. They have one very small flat bed wire cart to use for transporting recyclables from your vehicle to sort on the premises. Other places I’ve been to other places with more flexible staff who allow you to take the waste containers to your vehicle to sort bottles and cans but these guys won’t let you. Plus I don’t know why it took forever to get cash. I was just standing there waiting as they were doing busy work. Most places pay right after they weigh.

Mountain view resident brought in some textiles for recycling since their website says they take them. Was told by two attendants they do not take textiles and that the website is "very wrong". So I suppose one should not trust their website or not trust the attendants. Waste of time.
