2 months agoBrought in a very light load and they still managed to ding and scratch my truck. They pay no mind to what they're doing so if you care about that I'd suggest unloading what you can yourself. Besides that, Southside recycling offers an excellent service. -

12 months agoI weighed my scrap items before I left home. When they put my stuff on their scale , their scale was 30lbs lighter . When I asked about it . They told me that if I did not like it to go somewhere else . And they didn't pay me for my battery . Stay away. I was their today . My you kept my battery and didn't pay me correctly. Don't worry I'll never be back -

1 year agoThese guys are fantastic. They answered the phone when I called ahead, were polite and so nice. I needed a place to recycle a dehumidifier - was able to bring my kids and stay in the car since this is a drive thru - so convenient !! Polite and efficient, 10/10 recommend.
