What clients say about Auburn Recycling & Scrap Metals, Inc. in Auburn (CA)
-
The Auburn recycling has a fast and efficient procedure in place. You'll fly right through, as long as you have ALL your recycling separated ahead of time. You must take off all the plastic bottle caps ahead of time. Glass has to be separated by color. Wait for the staff to tell you move forward and form two lines at the end. Follow these procedures and you'll have a great experience.

Fairly quick, usually busy, pays cash. Not to many recyclable places around left. Make sure you have the caps off the bottle before. Will be back again.

Great recycling center. Both employees I met were friendly, helpful, and efficient. The man who checked my bottles and cans worked quickly and explained why certain items couldn’t be accepted. Once everything was inspected and weighed, I was quickly cashed out and on my way. Bonus points for the cute dog. Thanks guys!

Busy always. They do the best they can. Never have had a problem with any of the guys, always nice. Where I do see a problem is with a lot of the customers not having their recycling ready and correctly sorted and caps off. This creates a BIG holdup! With this I can see why the guys seem to get impatient.

Only game in town (the dump isn't in town) access is scetchy, lines can be long down the road. Once you learn the routine (read the signs, do what they say) it's cool. Patience is required and covid protocols are not really a priority. They're always busy so if you don't like it they have no problem with you leaving. They pay cash money in your hand and don't ask for I.D.

Very thorough. Great staff. My old car battery died while waiting in line; nobody got annoyed. They gave me a jump and got me on my way!

It's a busy place, but they move consistently. It goes slow when people are unscrewing the tops off containers. Can't blame the operation, they are as swift as the customers! Thanks, this service is not available in Grass Valley to my knowledge..

These people are a unified team working hard and moving quickly in the high temperatures. Even though there's a trendous long line of cars, they're a finely tuned team keeping a commendable pace. Thank you for your hard work.

Very busy, but they do a great job keeping the line moving! Super helpful and nice guys working. Just be sure to sort and have the lids off all your bottles, to help them make it fast and efficient.

All of these negative reviews are customers who don’t want to follow the guidelines; sort at home, separate glass by color (clear, brown, green) and only fill glass tubs halfway because glass is heavy, leave labels on plastics and remove caps, pull as far forward as possible and be ready to unload your recycling because that is a busy place. If you do that you’ll be in and out in a breeze.

No complaints, the man in charge was extremely helpful on my first visit. I was unaware of removing the caps off the plastic bottles and pushing them inside or just throwing them in the bag loosely, I believe it’s so they can maximize the compaction. I will be returning with my recycling needs. Thank you ✔️👍🏻

I used to go to the recycle center on Shale Ridge road but the management changed and the people were not very helpful. The staff at the Sacramento street site are trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent, (my mistake, that is the Boy Scout law) but they are still great. I always give them my proceeds as a tip.

They are very nice there, and convenient if you live in the Auburn area you don't have much choice. However, what they pay you for your cans is basically $1 a pound and the state delta is $1.58. So if you go in with 100#, expect $100, not $158. I had 80# and got $80. I could have driven to SAC, but who has time for that. They've got the Auburn folks by the short hairs.
