    There is something off about this place, you don't get a receipt to show weights and prices per pound, other places provide receipts with the cash you get. I didnt think much about it, until today. 3 trash cans full to the top of glass 2 bins of plastic and 2 bins of aluminum and again 60 and some change. Something fishy about this because the last 3 times we went which had more we never made more than 60. So that makes a 150% if not 200% profit. I went to another place with half the amount and walked away with 40 to 50 each time. Taking my stuff to other businesses that show pricing and provide receipts.
