Like others have said these guys ripp you off. I had over 100lbs of plastic and not only did they switch it to glass they also put that I had 100lbs of glass and only 50 of plastic. doing the math i would have made close to $200 on the plastic alone but I got $65 and the "glass" was only $10 or so. do not go to this place!

Customer Service does not exist at A & S. As a woman alone I thought maybe I would get some assistance lifting large stacks of cardboard and heavy bags. At times I struggled but not one man offered help. Then I was told to move my car over, putting it exactly where he told me to, and ten seconds later was told to move it again. I know this is just a recycling place but it is still a business, and there should be some customer service (including being a bit nicer.)

I am a contractor on the Monterey Peninsula. I will never go back to A&S metals. Their staff is a bunch of conniving thieves that use collusion to bilk you out of your money either by misrepresenting the weight or re-classifying your recyclables in a lessor category.
I drive to San Jose now to recycle all my material.
This has happened to me on more than 1 occasion and in talking to other contractors....this is the norm there.
They are the ONLY game in town so they don't care. Owners need to clean house or the sheriff needs to do a sting operation..Crooks!!

A & S is perfect for simply dropping off cardboard, worn aluminum yard chairs and old TV's plus other stuff; call them for confirmation. Simply drop off at selected areas; I never have much so never bother staff for credit but they do have compensation for large loads.

Updating my review June 29th 2019. Management must have read my original review because The last couple of times we've been here its improved.

Employees helped us unload our truck and even helped us sort some bottles on individual colors. This never really happened before. Which is nice because it does speed up the line. They now have an Express line for CRV recycling for people with smaller loads.

Most of the employees were helpful and nicer too.
I appreciate that because nobody really wants to be here and it makes the whole process a bit more tolerable.

One of the most inefficient operations known to man. If you plan to do some recycling on a Saturday, plan for at least 30 minutes waiting...just waiting. It's a lot like that Hertz commercial, "they try hard". Unfortunately, A&S is about the only game in town any longer.
