I've been going here for a long time and it's still good! It's the go-to recycling place.

I usually go to Altadena recycling center on Lincoln. Never again, they have no parking they are not accommodating they wanted us to park on the street about a block away and then carry the bags to be counted. So we left and went to SoCal recycling center in Eagle Rock, a much more pleasant experience. There was no wait, plenty of parking, and the service was friendly. They willingly answered all questions. I will gladly drive the extra miles to take my recycling there.

The only reason I am not giving them 5 stars is because we could not find the location the address says 2700 but I think it

I went there yesterday and the place seem to look like a junkyard. I was greeted by stares and foos. They scammed me! If you do go watch the scale, they change the weight on the paper. Terrible!

Followed a disabled man on a wheelchair with a clear disability to do anything on his own. I admired the man, but when I noticed he was struggling, salivating and having a clear neuro / cognitive disability I felt compelled to help. The gentleman working here WITH NO OTHER PEOPLE TO TEND TO BUT HIM DID NOT VOLUNTEER TO HELP, he instead gave him his back and got on his phone!! Just like it's seen on a photo here. Not okay. I immediately jumped out of my car, I asked him if he had gloves, he nonchalantly said no and gave me his back again. This is NOT OKAY. I basically did it all for the poor

I noticed that there are bad reviews for the recycling center however, for me the experience was not bad at all, they were there for me and I got some change. I just like doing the right thing by recycling. Go if you want to check for yourself.

It's a convenient place to take your bottles for recycling. However, the staff has terrible customer service. The one guy who was sorting out my things for recycling said to me "we don't take that" when he saw my pineapple juice cans. And they have their tip jar out as if they expect a tip. I will give them a tip. They should treat their customers nicer. I almost forgot, there was a lady customer before me who was upset how they were treating her. So I am not the only one complaining about their customer service.

It has many bottles and it is good to recycle things that still can be used and we all are very thankful for helping the earth by recycling all the bottles.

Not much info dropped on you upon arrival, nor assistance offered (even though they have a tip jar). I showed up a little after they opened on a Tuesday morning, announced it was my first time, tried to make chit chat, however neither of those two things resulted in further engagement. I was just told to separate my things and put them in the canisters...there didn't seem to be any restrictions or monitoring of the canisters to ensure I wasn't adding anything I wasn't supposed to. They didn't accept my cardboard but my glass, cans, and plastic was all aok. My stuff was weighed

Very fast service. In a good location and there were no lines when I went back twice in the same day. Friendly service and a place I will now make our number 1 recycling location.

The Glendale recycling center was full so I came here for the first time today (Saturday).

Location:
The top floor of the Macy's parking lot (Eagle Rock Plaza) on the right hand side.

What to do:
1. Grab an orange bin and sort your cans, plastic bottles, and plastic containers. If you have glass bottles, use the blue bins.
2. Put your bins on the scale
3. Sign your name on their clipboard and get cash

Pros:
-lots of parking available
-there was a young guy working who helped answer my questions and was really friendly

Cons:
-tons of bees/wasps circling around the cans today
-one of the

Arrived Saturday @2.51 PM and I was told to leave because the container was almost full. If you are planning to visit this place do it in the morning!

It was fast and easy. The guy working was pleasant. He was busy so there wasn't much conversation which was fine for 10 am. They give you the cash right there instead of having to go into a store to get the money. I will definitely make this my new recycling place.

So let's see, two people ahead of me and I'm told by one of the workers it's going to be 45 minutes before I can drop of 5 bags of bottles. The place is a complete mess. Unprocessed recyclables stacked up everywhere. Not sure how it is here on other days but I have no desire to find out!

Keep in mind, this is just a shipping container parked on the upper deck of a parking garage at a mall. It's a recycling center, not a hospital. Don't expect it to be clean. Usually smells like stale beer. Occasional Yellowjackets hang around in summer.

The attendants are not real talkative, but are not rude or surly either. These guys weight fast and move you through quickly. It's hard to keep up if you're trying to read the weights. I come every 3-4 weeks, and I've only "felt" shorted once. It happens, I payed more attention after that. The usual attendant

Had a very easy experience and the worker was very helpful. Not the most pleasant place to be as recycling centers usually aren't (Flys everywhere), but besides for that they give you cash in return rather than a receipt which definitely is a big plus.

No problems. I went on one of their "truck pickup" days too but didn't mind the wait that much. It's only happened once out of like twenty trips over there.

They are a little slow when the truck comes. That's natural but a quick "we'll be with you in a moment" goes a long way. So does please, thank you, and you're welcome. The review was going to be more positive but my last visit changed this.

The people working there when I went were thuggish and had that macho attitude that is so prevalent in LA. I felt like I was walking into a gangbanger controlled neighborhood going there. Where's my gun? Crap, I'm not packing! Hope I don't get shot!

They don't weigh your recyclables where you can see the
