The household hazardous waste is open 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month. Sort of convenience. The other recycling aspects are nice and clean and available. The dump area is just fine as well. It is function over fashion but they've got the Kinks worked out. There you go

Went in to do the right thing and recycle a bunch of block foam (styrofoam). This was my first time there so I was not familiar with the process. I was immediately yelled at by a rude lady monitoring what I was putting in. I understand that they’re trying to keep things in proper order but it definitely is not necessary to yell and berate your customers.

They are very organized and overall, it's the cleanest transfer station I've been to!

The process is pretty straight forward. But the lady that handles the dump drop off area makes an already unpleasant task even more unpleasant by yelling at customers and making it stressful to back in. I have been yelled at every time I’ve been there, and she followed me to the sharps drop off this last time.. presumably to make sure I didn’t try to exit without paying.

My husband goes here quite often because he is a general contractor. The lady running the show today was incredibly rude to him and even yelled at him when he was doing exactly what he's done on every trip. She needs to work on her professionalism - even if the job is working at a dump, it's still a job and you should be respectful and polite to your paying customers. Also, if you're going to have the mask mandate in place, as it states on your website, you should know that your mask goes over your nose and your mouth... this lady was not only rude but evidently doesn't understand that her nose
