I really like their recycling center. Employees are always approachable and customer-friendly. They helped retrieve the aluminum out of the back of the truck and answered questions. At the office where I collected money the employees in there were quick friendly and offered great snacks and coffee. I felt happy when I left. I also saw that they contribute much to the community and will also give out some fair passes for free. Great place great people!

The staff was kinda friendly till there great ass hole of a boss/owner showed up and started to cuss and disrespect me for doing what his employees told me to do. I can tell you right now that you do not want to deal with them. I have never been disrespected like that in all my life. One of these days he will get what's comen to him. And I hope I'm there to see it.
