The Recycling Zone

It is a great place for recycling and getting rid of other materials. Most of the time they take your junk for free. The only problem is the workers there. They have been consistently rude over the years with little to no customer service focus. The last time a few weeks ago the young lady came to my car and didn’t say a word. I greeted her and showed her what I had. She insisted that one of the items couldn’t be recycled, grabbed the other item and stormed off even though I was talking to her. I am sure she was right that this item couldn’t be recycled, but you don’t have to be rude. Then, I went inside to have the guy swipe my driver’s license and he was rude. This is a typical day at Recycling Zone customer service wise. They provide a great service to the community but need to improve the way they treat people. Just because you are the only option in town doesn’t mean your people can act this way.

Seriously the best county program for recycling everything, proper household hazardous waste disposal, & a great resource for what to do with things you just have no idea what to do with.
This location has evolved from 1 guy in the back of Gopher to a great educational, environmentally beneficial Zone. Mark & all the folks are working so hard to protect our planet.
Please see their website or call for information on what they can take. They will unload your car. Lines are usually short, weekends are the busiest in the spring or summer. Don’t save up for years, just take a quick trip there every season! Bring your drivers license for drop off (it helps get more funding, by showing how used the facility is).
They also have reuse area, where good material is available free for the taking.
Come check this place out, even if you don’t have anything to bring in. There is limited parking available, but you can park, look around ask questions & see their xeriscaping.
