Go Green Recycling

Been going to this place for about a year and love it. Employees are friendly and will help me unload if they aren’t busy. The main reason I keep going back is because it’s clean. Used to go to the one on Waterloo Rd but the parking lot is so dirty that your shoes stick to the ground.

Went over the weekend and had a great experience. Guy weighing my stuff was super friendly. Legit bznz b/​c I brought in half the amount I brought to the recycling place on Waterloo last month and got almost the same $. Clean n no funky smell doesn’t hurt either.
PS…1 way mirror at collection window was cool ;)

we love this place. It is always clean and the people are so nice.

Being a college student, who wouldn’t mind making an extra buck and helping the environment. I’ve been in search of a respectable recycling facility for quite some time and have finally stumbled upon one in Stockton that won’t cheat me.
First off, I’m amazed of how incredibly clean this establishment was for a place that’s constantly being fed people’s junk. The employees were very friendly and helped ease the process by guiding me through the separation process. Parking and accessibility was convenient.
What specifically made me want to do this review was the fact the manager (Walter) offered a hand to the elderly that were also at the location. Really showed a lot of character about the management.
Overall, if you want to recycle then this is the place to go. Very straightforward pricing, friendly staff, clean facility, and the best part is you don’t have to wear a gas mask because there is no smell like other places. Trust me you won’t be disappointed making some extra green at Go Green!

There is a website noted on my receipt.
My first time at this location. The website lists 10 area locations including this site and the other site in Stockton. Which side note the other location in Stockton (Douglas) has two entries on Unilocal.
Getting in and out of the facility is a breeze. There are entry/​exits on both N Sanguinetti Lane as well as Robindale. There were only a few other patrons when I went and one was finishing as I was arriving and the other was coming in as I was finishing. Granted it was a Friday afternoon and the 1^st of the month which means everyone was at the bank which I discovered later. Lol.
You park. Grab however many wheeled garbage cans you need to separate your items and wheel them over to be weighed. So the service staff were very nice. Two workers that I saw. One weighing the items you bring in and the other processing once the weigh in has been completed. Everything was clean and orderly. There was nothing out of the ordinary to note until my weigh in was completed and I was handed my papers to turn into for my cash. Rates are always variable and I think it’s a total waste of technology that these places don’t update their prices online on a daily basis. Also it appears that they may have used to utilize street side signage noting the prices but no longer do.
Anyway there is a mirrored glass window where you turn in your paperwork and you really can’t see anything behind like the Wizard of Oz™ or something. You just hear a voice. Kinda creepy and sketchy. But other than that the process was painless and simple and quick.
So I decided to be a good Unilocal citizen or consumer advocate and take a few pictures since I noticed that there were non and no listing period on Unilocal.After innocently wandering around the public space taking a few pictures to help identify the business some creepy dude come walking out slowly meandering up to me. He asked what I was doing and I politely told him. I asked him if he knew what Unilocal was and he didn’t. Which is pathetic in my opinion. But since he looked like he actually lived under a rock it also didn’t surprise me. I really only say anything about his appearance because of the unfriendly mirrored glass and his attitude. Otherwise I’m not expecting a model type to be working at a recycling facility. He continues to grill me asking why and what. I let him know it’s in his favor and help people locate his business and that he isn’t even listed.
I could have went on about all the free services and opportunities that he could take advantage of that they offer to businesses. But… I don’t work for Unilocal or him. Just thinking of my fellow consumers. To scare him away I asked if he wanted to be in a picture and he promptly returned towards his crypt behind the mirrored glass.
Easy to locate with two entrance/​exits. Clean and quick. With a few tweaks in personnel this could be a 4 star place and if they utilized a better system for informing the public about current rates could even be a 5.
