Quick and effecient for return of bottles and cans. A particpant of the Governments 10c bottle and can recycle program. Easy access, relatively clean( as an outdoor operation of this style could be.) Helpful staff. I imagine certain days and weekends would be extremely busy here, as it is a smaller operation, set in a growing region.
