I went there last December to return my kombucha bottles after accumulating quite a few over the year. I was advised to count them beforehand because they often try to short customers. I did count them, then waited for their count, and as expected, they came up two bottles short. It’s only 10 cents, but that’s not the point. It shows their lack of honesty. I won’t be going back. I’d rather stop drinking kombucha altogether than return to a place that treats customers this way.
I went there the other day . This place is clean well organized very respectful and polite. They work fast paced and there customers are top priority. Love theses ppl and the environment the work in . I would like to get a job here and become an employee like that lady that works there. Thank you guys love this place and very honest u can trust .
The staff including the owners don't know how to count. If you call them out on it (it's YOUR money) they give you an attitude and argue and call you a liar. If I could give zero stars I would. Just go to beer world. They have a counting machine and staff that doesn't degrade your intelligence
A few months ago was my first time returning bottles and cans at a recycling center opposed to using the machines at Walmart or ShopRite or Hannaford. Make sure you remove the bottle tops, and to make your life easier, count your returns prior to recycling. Also, sort your plastics and cans and double check that your returns are eligible for a bottle deposit in your state. I ended up loosing some of my recycling refund because I didn’t count prior and they estimated the number of bottles and cans I had because they were about to be closing for the day. So between that and the hours, not being open late enough for what is convenient for me, personally…. I am going with 4 stars. Overall, staff is nice, hardworking, and helpful.
The worse customer service ever. You would think with the more bottles you bring in they would be happy. I brought half my stuff in and every bag I kept bringing the dude was rolling his eyes. Then complaining about the cans not being clean enough. Never again. Pretty much want me to hand him the cans on a platter.
Staff courteous and quick. Open 7 days a week. Best place to cash in bottles, especially large amounts. I usually do 500 or more at a time. It does get busy and covud restrictions limit number of people inside at one time.
If you have a lot of bottles to deposit and you don't want to spend your time in front of a bottle machine pluging one by one, you can bring your bags of bottles here. Only wish a place like this was more closer to home.
the owner is extremely rude!! i've been returning my bottles here for the past few months and came the other day to do so. the owner approached me at my car before i even opened my door to ask if the bottles were already counted because he was to tired to do so. i came an hour before he closed! after complaining that my bottles weren't precounted, inside he continuously through the cans that weren't returnable at me instead of pushing them to the side politely. one can got mixed in that hadn't been opened yet so it was full and he still decided to throw it at me which caused it to fall on the floor and explode everywhere. lmao not my mess to clean now jerk!! will never return here again. i advise you to go somewhere else as well. the terrible treatment is not worth the twenty bucks you may get.
Prior to covid-19 it was super easy in and out. Today I went and there was a line but it was probably still faster than going to a supermarket or more accurately several super markets since most won't take certain brands, unlike bottle depot. To speed things up, count up your bottles before you get there. They will usually take your word for it but they reserve the right to count themselves.
The manager knows his stuff and has the unhappy job of fishing out non-deposit units so he doesn't have to eat the nickel. Pre-sorting and counting in clear plastic bags really streamlines the process. Once he knows you are trustworthy you get a handshake and no questions asked with your bags. I highly recommend this place
I came here recently to deposit some bottles and cans. The Manager was incredibly rude, short and impolite to all of the customers and his employee working with him.
The young man is sorting 1,451 cans, bottles and glass from the customer in front of me. And his manager is belittling him, looking at the customers to agree with him with his backhanded comments and tone.
As manager of people myself, I find the managers behavior deplorable and would not recommend that anyone support this business which treats it's patrons and employees in such a way.
