Pretty nice workers and decent prices. Though they can get pretty backed up if their equipment is down and they weren't a huge fan when mi amigo Marcus went looking for treasure in their piles

Thanks to their online traffic schedule I chose to go dump an old fridge at 4pm on a Saturday. Just as the website said it wasn’t busy at all! I went through the weigh station dropped the fridge off in the refrigerated section and paid- all in about 10 minutes. Easy breezy experience and friendly staff. Thanks!

Extremely well laid out facility. A little large for not being familiar with its layout for first time visit. Open layout plenty of room for the amount of patrons. My only thing I found out of place is how they somehow believed a facility is comparable to a campus regarding their no smoking signage. (noun: the grounds and buildings of a university or college)
