Great place to drop off your scrap &/or garbage! Very polite employees & the premises is pretty clean! Stop on in & get paid for your scrap metal, lol 😀 They're very helpful. If you don't know, just ask!
Albany Recycling Center is the cleanest recycling center I've ever been too! I hope they are proud of that. My community has a great recycling center but doesn't take electronics. Albany Recycling participated in a recycling event in our community. That's how I found out about them. I met with Noah ahead of my drop off. He took the time to explain how their recycling works. I stopped a couple of weeks later on a weekday morning. I had six computers, a laser printer, keyboards, cords, desk phones, small speakers, headsets and other miscellaneous electronics to recycle. They are certified to deal with hard drives. I showed up, found a parking spot and was immediately met by an employee with a skid loader. He unloaded my items and weighed them. I met him in the very clean office where we sorted out the billing. They paid me for some items. I paid them for some items. It was a GREAT experience. These people know what they're doing and they make it easy for the customer. I drove 120 miles round trip. It was worth it. Best time is Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
I stopped there this morning with a truck load of old computers, appliances, and aluminum cans. What an excellent system this place has for unloading, weighing and helping customers. I live over an hour away,but nothing close to me is half this efficient. Albany Recycling is my choice from now on.
Had the best experience here. Friendly and helpful staff, and such a clean facility. We brought several TVs and the fees were more than reasonable. Worth the drive! We will be back!
Never recycled metal before but they made it so simple. Clear and easy. I was in and out within 15 min with a truck bed full of stuff. The place is super clean and easy to navigate. Staff was incredible and friendly. Highly recommend!
I LOVE THIS PLACE, You can Recycle Batteries in a bin, glass, paper, plastic, old Electrics in a dump bin, Old Medications in a Lock Box. It is Fully Wheelchair Friendly with Mobility Ramps to the main office, the rest of the open layout surrounds the parking circle and the " FREE EXCHANGE ZONE",has " FREE BOOKS",a big bin & Shelves of different Books. You can Bring Things that are in good shape & Reusable there and drop it off, where Friendly Volunteers Carefully sort & Place the items out on display for those in NEED. Old Record albums, Clothes hangers, Paper, & a Kids section with Toys & things to be Creative with. THIS SHOULD BE MANDITORY FOR EVERY CITY TO HAVE A RECYCLING CENTER LIKE THIS not only to Recycle but also for People to get a chance & a Place to interact together to HELP the Planet become a better place. Check their website for hours & Holiday Schedule.
I was becoming a regular there during the end of the pandemic and they noticed I was in need of money so they hired me for the spring. The owners are extremely great leaders, who don't ask you to do anything they wouldn't do themselves. Also they are excellent at teaching and I was able to get in the full swing of things after just a couple weeks. Unfortunately I could stay with them long, as I had family matters to take care of. I'll drive 30 minutes from St Cloud to recycle with them instead of the local place.
