What clients say about Strip District Drop-Off Center in Pittsburgh (PA)
Easy to use. Pull right up and they have bins for glass bottles, cans, cardboard, and paper. No plastic bag recycle though.
You have to separate everything and there was nobody there when I went, but I would separate beforehand anyway. The paper needs to be loose, the cardboard broken down, etc. The same way you’d have to put it out for recycling.
I have a very small truck didn't even have enough to get to the bed rails and it was almost $50. If I would have drove 20 miles to Manteca it would have cost me $20. This place is absolutely off the rails with their fees
I think your service is great I’m just confused on whether or not you take the kind of plastic that I have. It’s mostly just wraps and excess plastic from pallets. We have a lot does anyone know if they will take it all?
As a heads-up, the times listed on Google are only for the e-waste recycling drop-off. The regular recycling bins, which are located outside, are available for 24-hour drop-off. This is a great recycling drop-off location. It's relatively easy to find (look out for signs to direct you), and there is plenty of space to pull in. I've been here multiple times and the location has always been clean. There are typically 1-2 other cars that arrive when I am there, so it doesn't get overly crowded. There are multiple bins and they have always had plenty of room left. This location will take cardboard, paperboard, mixed paper, glass, cans, and bottles. Everything is nicely labelled and organized. I appreciate Pittsburgh offering this option so that those of us without curbside recycling can still recycle!
I had easy access to getting rid of All my cases of my Pandemic legacy Yingling beer bottles but glass was on the ground everywhere and I might wake up to a flat tire tomorrow. Also you can't see if someone else parks on the other side of the glass dumpster so when a person opened the latch door on the other side that I didn't know, I had bottles already in the air flying almost causing him to get hit with sharded glass.
Very nice setup. I believe it is open 24/7 and there are lots of bins for cardboard, glass, mixed paper, shredded paper(must be bagged), plastic/aluminum and cardboard.
