We could not have written a better "About" page than Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter wrote for us in presenting a minority entrepreneur citation in the Green Business category to Greendog Recycling and our President, Andy Truong. Below is an excerpt from the citation. Andy Truong and his management team are South Vietnamese war refugees who arrived in the U.S. as children in the mid-1980's.
When you hire Greendog Recycling, you can hire with confidence. Our facility is an EPA-certified business and adheres to all environmental guidelines. Safety is our number one priority and we pride ourselves on our customer service: Our clients' concerns are our concerns. Being a minority-owned and Equal Opportunity Employer means we empower Philadelphia's communities to have a greater impact on the planet.
The world's quickly growing population rapidly increases the demand for metal, and metal is very energy-intensive to produce from raw material. Greendog Recycling was founded in response to the need for a scrap metal recycling facility where people in the Philadelphia area can do their part in taking care of the environment.

Of all the recycling places that I have been this is the best and most helpful yard that I've been on. The turnaround everytime I have went have been less than 15minutes that's what three or four cars in front of me waiting dump and cash out.The helpers on the yard or courteous and very helpful. They don't take rims with tires on and I thought I had to take it with me but one of the people on the yard bought the tire from. I myself also have brought things from those that are workers on the yard they pointed me in the right direction and gave me advice.

This site says they are open on Sundays?!? They are not!!! My husband went there on Saturday and they never gave him his i.d. card back. He had to take a half hour walk just to get there, going off this info and him needing his license, He went....and sure enough they were closed! An hour he will never get back. And far as business wise beings I'm reviewing anyway... one of the worst places to go in N.E. Philly! They used to be really good and fair in pricing. Idk if under new management or what but I don't see them lasting much longer.
