Moises Corral

Moises Corral (3/5 stars, a week ago): Can the center please ensure dyed plastic also gets recycled. (The period is intentional.)

Ricky Q

Ricky Q (5/5 stars, a year ago): Easy drop off. Open dumpsters the workers will ask you to dump boxes full of recycling and break down the box. And no bags so dump them out and keep the bags. Mixed bin so everything goes in. Plastic cardboard and aluminum.
