RePlanet Recycling

They never want to take glass bottles here — ALWAYS claim to be full. Then tell you they are closed for cleaning when you show up before 10. This place is ridiculous. I guess they all are. Or the few that I’ve used are anyway.
It shouldn’t be THAT hard to recycle if the state is pre-​charging you for it!!! Dumbest thing ever.

This is the worst place to recycle!!! First of the guy is a total jerk. He has no sense of how to deal with the people. I live right next to this place. I dont write reviews but had to for this one. The guy always takes 1.5 hours of lunch and then to top it off he closes the places an hour early making an excuse that the machine is over heating. We were ahead of this one guy and he even told this kid that he will serve us and then he will close but guess what the kids mom was in the car and called the guy to talk to him. After he talked to the lady he came and said that he wont serve us but will serve the kid whose mom just talked to him. I dont how he is still working there, with so many complains.

Worst business ever! Their workers close up shop before closing time, about an hour earlier. No one is watching them or making them accountable. Half the time you show up and they are on break. The place is not kept clean, plastic bags are flying around, it smells and is an eye soar for Albertsons. Every time I come with glass, and I MEAN EVERY TIME, the attendant tells me they can’t take glass because they are full and the pickup hasn’t arrived. I spent several days in a row with my bag and it was the same story which is very difficult to believe. According to the office once they call the pick up should arrive within 24 hrs. How is it possible that the glass get’s full every single day.

It nearly always feels good to do that right thing and ultimately do your part to maintain a strong, clean environment. I feel that recycling needs to happen in more households and locations like replanet makes it possible to redeem your cans/​bottle for some $. This location is a bit off the beaten path but does give you both weight and individual redemption opportunities for your products. The staff is always pretty helpful but the machines tend to be down quite a bit which usually equates to a longer than desired wait. Overall it is what it is, do what you gotta do and be on with your day.

Worst service I have ever received in my life from any kind of company EVER! First of all, I drove there with a carload of recycling cans (667 to be exact), and I had driven by the day before to find out the exact hours so that I could be certain it would be an easy process (I have 3 small children in tow at all times!). I arrived at 1:35, and since the sign said it is closed from 1 – 1:30, I was anticipating It being opened. I pulled up and started unloaded cans. The guy who runs it, tall, lanky, very unhappily and gruffly hollered at me that he was closed. There was a line of other people in front of me toting bags and barrels of cans and we all looked around at each other mildly confused and continued standing there-​the place looked open, it wasn’t lunch break hour time, surely the owner was joking or maybe he was talking to someone else?! Again he said-«Hey, it’s lunchtime, I am supposed to take my lunch from 1 – 1:30 and I can’t because people keep showing up! I need to go now and I’ll be back in an hour!» I was flabbergasted. It’s not our fault you didn’t take a lunch when you were supposed to! I dragged my cans back to my vehicle and hauled my children home for naps. Defeated that carting everything all the way there during open hours was a complete waste of all our time! After my kiddos naps 3:30 maybe and the place closes at 4:30 we all trekked back to the facility, 667 cans to be exact and when we arrived, I again hauled all the cans out barrel by barrel. Again the guy (and I am not kidding), Hollers that he is closed. I was beside myself. What?! I questioned. «It’s 3:30! You close at 4:30!» And he said, and I quote: «we close at 4:30 but it takes 45 minutes to shut down the facility so I can’t take anymore customers after 3:30!» He was angry, gruff, body posture very standoffish and so I asked why, if it takes 45 minutes is he turning away customers a whole entire hour early. He ignored me. I put all my cans (my 667 cans) back into the car with my 3 small kids and left. I drove all the way home and googled other recycling centers. I then selected one of your competing facilities. I drove to them, unloaded all my cans, got my $$ and was home in record time. I was pleased and happy and will use them forever! Even tho they are 20 minutes further, I will never ever ever set foot on your facility’s property AGAIN. He just lost you a substantial amount of business. It’s unfortunate that you are employing someone without quality, integrity, tact, helpfulness or kindness.

I’ve been coming here for about 10 years! Best way to get your CRV money back plus it is a good way to get your money and recycle your bottles, cans, and glass bottles. Plus the workers are here are great and the past workers that worked here still remembers me, which is pretty awesome in my point if view. But it does extremely loud when he or she breaks the glass bottles! Also there’s always a long or short wait depending on what time come like today for example around 1pm it’s a short line since nobody doesn’t want to be in the heat!

Hey! Help the environment and get cash back! I’m a fan. They offer assistance Tuesday through Saturday, but have self service machines that can take your CRV items every day of the week from 8AM to 5 PM. However, if the machines are full over the weekend, beware of trying to deposit your items by yourself on Sunday or Monday. The self serve machines can turn off if the receptacles are full.
So, be sure you only have typical size bottles or cans to return. If they are smashed or deformed, the machines won’t recognize them and not give you credit. Also, random bottles or cans like some juice containers aren’t accepted by the machines. Not sure if they’ll take them when the staff are there. They take water jugs, but not milk jugs. Not sure why if they’re rinsed out. I could understand if milk residue was left and smelled like week old milk. Yeck!

If you don’t mind getting your hands dirty, this is a good place to come and redeem your CRV from cans and bottles.
I collect my CRV items and usually have a bag or two every month. I volunteer and raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society year round — so all the money I make from recycling here gets donated to this worthy cause. It’s not much but every penny and and every dollar helps advance cancer research.
I’d recommend coming during the off-​peak hours. Lunch time seems to be super busy and especially when they first open.
