This is a CRV (California Redemption Value) recycling center. The mission of these centers is in part to collect recycling that can get a new life span by being reused in the market. When you buy a product at a store like a bottle of wine or a case of soda you are charged with a CRV tax. If you take these recyclables to places like Adas you are given back that added tax on the original sale. If you did not buy the recycling and you exchange the CRV you can make a little money. My advice is to focus on aluminum as it has the highest value per pound. Crush your cans too! I have personally never felt like I have been scammed or cheated at Adas. The staff is always friendly and I enjoy giving them a small tip in appreciation of their hard work. In a perfect world we would have more of these centers and value our materials that have already outlived their purpose.
Not sure why someone rated with one star, completely false. I do not work for them nor was paid. I listed my review and saw another post, anyways just wanted to say that because some people are haters and leave one star reviews everywhere.
This recycling location is the best! They have awesome customer service and are fast, accurate, and pay well to boot. They speak English and Spanish fyi. I love these guys. Very friendly and professional as well!
No sé por qué alguien calificó con una estrella, completamente falso. No trabajo para ellos ni me pagaron. Enumeré mi opinión y vi otro post, de todos modos sólo quería decir que debido a que algunas personas son enemigos y dejar comentarios de una estrella en todas partes.
Este centro de reciclaje es el mejor! Tienen un servicio al cliente excelente, son rápidos, precisos y, además, pagan bien. Hablan inglés y español. Me encantan. Son muy amables y profesionales igual!

DO NOT TAKE YOUR BUSINESS HERE!!!!!
This man will rip you OFF!!! I took my recycling to this company over the weekend, I had about four full bags of cans and water bottles. He gave me $25. After discussing that our math didn't quite come out to the same number, I asked for the phone number of the district office to complain. He wouldn't give it to me. He underpaid me about $35.00. I was very unhappy and upset because I observed him paying a young man in front of me who had 2 bags $40 plus dollars. This place needs to be shut DOWN!!!!! Can someone provide an 800 number for the corporate recycling number?
Adas Recycling should be audited
!!!!!!
Well, it's true... they will absolutely try to cheat you!
They tried to cheat me, but I weighed my aluminum before I went (at the advice of other reviewers) and checked the swindler: 58lbs of aluminum not 54lbs that the jerk claimed. He caved immediately and handed over my ten bucks because he was guilty as hell.
They lose only two stars because the place is convenient, pays in instant cash and is relatively convenient. Plus the workers are quite nice and smile while they try to steal from you!
Caveat emptor!
I have been there two times ,and same grumpy man always complaining and acting very prepotent.please never go there...yo fui dos veces y el mismo compa prepotente, gruñon...pésimo servicio ...si no tiene que ir ahí no lo hagan
I have used this facility for eight months, they seemed great. I don't know if they "changed hands," but they certainly have changed...today was strange, an entire car full of cans paid what 2 -3 bags had before?? $10?? I was alone in that parking lot, afraid to argue.
And the guy definitely has no respect for personal perimeters. He brushed up against me (too lightly to be termed " molesting") far too many times. Thief.
Simple enough. Just make sure you separate everything; cans, glass (also needs to separate by color), and plastic. You get paid in cash. It's just a dirt lot, so parking isn't super strict. It was quick.
My first time back to a recycling local. The lady who helped me was very helpful and nice. They opened up right on time . I'll be back. I'm not sure if I'm getting market prices, but I'm doing it for the planet not the money!!
Just thieves. I got 65% of my money. I've weighted the recycled at home and knew exactly the weight. That employee is an expert in stealing. If I will go next time to that place I will call the police on them.
I love this recycling station. I have never had to wait in a line. The gentleman working there is polite and professional. No more waiting in line at the dump for a half hour. Time is money.
I have left messages for this place and never get a call back. Every time I drive by they are not open and I’m simply trying to fine out WHEN they are open but no one calls back.
