I almost left two stars bc my first experience with them was good - when I had pre counted my returnables. The second time, I did not count them all and thought I could entrust this simple task to the PAID employees.
I had 17 bags of cans (nearly no bottles). I was given $52.50 (w my 6cent coupon) The first time, in which i counted my own, I was given $48 and I only had 12 bags with no coupon. When I got home, i counted a bag I had not brought in and it held 78 cans. If you do the math on that, it would be 1326 cans. And since I understand the amount varies per bag, I can provide some leeway and assume there's only 70 cans in each bag (just to prove a point). At 6 cents a can that would equal $71!!! And if each bag had had more than 78 cans, it would be over $80. I received $52.50. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED W THE LACK OF HONESTY where I once had the impression that this place was a good business.
I'll update my review if someone from management reaches out to me and makes this situation right.
Times are tough, and we don't need dishonest establishments making them tougher.
We are always going to this place now. They take the cans out of your vehicle for you, very nice gentleman, both asked if we were in need of assistance. This is such a breath of fresh air compared to our previous redemption place. I'm sure the job is tough, but these guys have a great attitude and level of customer service. I sent a text to my wife immediately to tell her about it since she can't stand taking bottles back. 10 stars fellas!
These guys are 100% legit(I've been returning cans here for well over two years)...if they make a mistake (to anyone that reviews them bad) just let them know and be nice to them and they will hook you up!
Being nice goes a long way; to all the Karen's out there that want to complain about returning a few hundred dollars in cans...sounds like you have enough money anyway and should donate the cans anyway ya dolt. These guys are the bomb.com and there's clearly a reason why they are rated so well.
If you need a legit can return facility; this is the one!
Thanks again guys you rock in my book always!
Every time I come I count how many bags I come with and it evens out to about 226$ give or take in cans as we drink a lot of water bottles this time I bring same amount of cans back and I end up with 108$ something is definitely wrong there.Oh and I come here at least twice a month there is absolutely no way that’s all there was.I fill my car every time and count the bags definitely just got ripped off at least 100$
I pulled in and a very kind gentleman came right out to my car before I could even get out to pick up my bag of cans & bottles. Curbside service when they aren't busy is 👌🏼 Highly recommend!!
I easily had over $12 worth of returns and I got $8.60 back. I can say this because I return cans only in boxes, so the count is always about the same. Prior to today, all returns were great. Always used to tip - no more.
COUNT RETURNS AHEAD OF TIME
My 1st time here. The staff was very nice and happy to help, even if I did have about 6-7 bags of returns. Oops lol. Will be coming back. Thanks for your help!
Worst experience I've had here yet. I took in at least 1000 bottles, 7 regular sized garbage bags, 1 35g bag and a full 55g bag with a 6 cent coupon and got back a whopping $32.75. I will NOT be going back. If you want to get robbed go here otherwise stay away. The gentleman behind me had 4 regular sized bags and got back $17. Talk about highway robbery.
I don’t come here often, but when I have a lot of bottle and cans, this is where I bring them. The staff is attentive, polite, helpful, and count everything up quickly. I came here last night right before closing and was out in about two minutes. If you have a lot of bottles and cans to return, I would definitely recommend Can Kings.
Today my life was changed. No more sorting store brand cans / bottles and trips to separate stores for me. I pulled up to Can Kings and walked around my car to get a large bag of cans and bottles. Before I could open the door on the other side, an employee had arrived to take the bag. He said, "I'll be right back, do you want to keep the bag?". He was back with my money and bag in less than 5 minutes. Thank you!
DON’T GET SCAMMED! One of the employees came out and said he would help me carry my six giant bags of bottles in. When I walked in behind him, two of the employees shouted at me, “You can’t be in here!”, as I watched the guy with the bags dump the cans out, on top of a bunch of other cans. There was no way to distinguish my cans from the ones already on the the counting table. I went outside and waited for about 10 minutes and one of them came out handed me $15.10 and said “Here ya go.” It’s a pretty good scam. They pay about half of what it’s worth and pocket a bunch of cash at the end of the day. I’ve gone to Alpco Recycling with the same number of bags, all packed full and have always been paid $28-30.
Go ahead and keep it, I guess you thieves need the extra money more than I do.
Wow! What a great and enthusiastic crew! These energetic professionals sometimes have an overwhelming crowd of folks showing up and when I got there the "line forms to the right" and it was daunting. But . . . In just moments I was startled "How can I help you, Sir?" . . . I had 20 pre-counted bags uploaded and cash in hand in just about 90 seconds. Amazing!
Always great service. Awesome employees. I wouldn't pay too much attention to the like 1 er 2 less tgan great reviews. Some people seem to live to ccomplain.
The staff knows what they are doing, if they walked past you it's cause you weren't next lol.
The problem with being the best is being busy. Show up early morning and its smooth sailing. The employees are more courtious than most food service places. Also amazon Alexa and google home mini have a funny way of saying there name. Give it a try.
The folks here are friendly, helpful and efficient. They will help you bring your bottles
inside, count them really fast and you're out if there in no time. It's really the only place to go
Fast, polite, upbeat operation. I'm never redeeming at the grocery store again. They pay 6 cents per container on the 6th of each month. Watching them make short work of tallying the container count bordered on artistic.
LOVE THIS PLACE!! `ugh for year i always went to those SLOW one can at a time centers. it took soo long. i come here every 6 months and usually bring the $.06 a can coupon. so you can get a little more if you have a lot of cans. They are so friendly here and soo FAST
Often, someone comes out to help me bring my cans in - without asking! They count them extremely fast and it's rather fun to watch. I always have a 6 cent coupon, too!
Friendly guys, fast service, open long hours including 10-4 on Sundays. I always leave at least a $1 tip even if I only have a small bag of cans. It’s fun to watch the speed and accuracy with which they count and toss the cans into the sorting bins.
These guys here are awesome! Like others have said, professional and friendly. Beats feeding bottles and cans through a machine, even if I have to wait in line for a few minutes. Their counting is spot on and sorting is lightning fast. Don't waste your time at Wegmans or Tops. Highly recommend.
This is thee best place to bring your cans. Not only do they have extremely friendly fast service but they also are very professional. Me and my company have been bringing our bottle returns here for years for a reason. These guys do everything right. A real Class A operation they got going on here. Keep up the great work you guys!
Always fast, friendly, and courteous. Sure beats feeding the can machine at Wegmans. It can get busy, (because they're providing a gopd service) so you may have to wait, or make amother trip when they are quieter.
Way under counted our car full of cans and bottles. Same number of bags, but this time it went from $53 to $35. Keep and eye on them to make sure they accurately count your cans and bottles.
These guys are super friendly and the service is fast because you don't have to use those machines. They even help you get the cans out of your car if you want.
