Website states plastic bags ok. ✅️ When we get there no plastic bags???? But was a small bin for them but couldn't read the sign on outside???? A 2" slot was on top ????? I had a huge amount of bags to push through that slot??? Confusion st it's best!

Very friendly helpful staff experts in the sanitation engineering department. Know how to put a smile on a clients face. Recycling is easy to navigate. Just be sure your load is secure with tarp or strap.

It's nice to have a place you can drop off your recyclables and not put them in the landfill except for I wish they would bring back glass recycling
