On January 4th I came to drop off a few boxes along with some bed shelfs and the guys that work there told me they don’t accept such trash (even though they can weight it and I will just pay for it) and the guy told me he can throw it away for $10 (without weighting it) and told me to give the money to him instead of the register..? Not sure what kind of service that was but it was a rip off.

Great place to recycle plastic bottles and aluminum cans. My only complaint would be people sorting their recyclables in the parking lot, which takes up a parking spot for a long period of time. If people would just sort their stuff at home (driveway, backyard, car port, etc.) instead of at OC Recycling's parking lot, throughput would be much better.

Very disappointed with their prices. Definitely trying out another place. 0.09 cents per pound on aluminum. Should have just brought a can of Coca Cola. Brought in 412 pounds of aluminum (dirty) not including the 100 pounds they removed. 100 ? Really ? Maybe the bolts were the only thing not aluminum on there along with a few wheels. Not enough to make 100 pounds though. Then I thought maybe the dolly I used ? Except I can easily pick it up without hesitation.
Try out another place I highly recommend it.

Seems to have something for everything. For the Googlers. I brought

I have been going here for about over 8 years. I mainly recycle electronics and I find their services easy to use and the staff helpful. Customer service has improved over the years and today was top. The only complaint I have is that the reception/payment windows need upgraded speakers, it is super hard to hear the staff.

I give this place a 1 star rating because they used to pay out more. Mind you that I have been coming to this pave for nearly 2 years. Now for the past 3 to 4 weekends. I have taken the same amount of large bags of bottles when i used to average 24 dollars & now the most i get is between 16 to 18 dollars. They write down a number & hand it to you instead of printing it out. They may very well be ripping people off in that manner.
I will NEVER EVER go back there whatsoever. I don't recommend for no 1 to ever go there, unless anybody likes to get ripped off.

NOT GOOD!! When I left on my previous visit, I felt that I had been taken advantage of on both the weight and the price per pound for my aluminum cans. This time I called and talked to a representative there and I asked if their company accepted coupons from another facility and the reply was yes for the face value of the coupon. When I brought my cans two days later the story changed and I received $.20 per pound less than the face value of the coupon.
