      I am not a contractor so this isn't a review from a business standpoint but as a homeowner, I do go dump junk from yearly cleaning or debris from remodeling. This facility is dependable and I've never had any issues here of any sort. The crew is very professional and helpful despite the inherent work conditions (dust, noise, odor, and probably not the highest paying blue collar job). Both inside the actual dump and the weigh station - the crew always have a smile on their face when interacting. Even if I show up near closing time, there's someone to guide me and make sure I backup at the right spot. Other than that, not much else to add - it's a dump, lol.

      California's largest operator of recycling, Ontario-based RePlanet, has closed all 284 of its centers redemption centers and laid off 750 employees.

      It's left all of us recyclers scratching our heads with umpteen questions.

      The most common begs: are there still buyback programs to get back our $0.05 deposits?

      Look no further. HERE! This is the place. Sure it's not as conveniently located as your not-so-friendly recycling center that no longer exists in the grocery store back lot. But it's a buyback program nonetheless.

      Massive facility beyond Oyster Point. My only gripe is their limited buyback business hours that end at 2pm.

      I finally had a day off during the workweek. I productively used this time to drop off our plethora of 50-gallon yardwaste bags filled with single-use plastic bottles/aluminum cans/glass bottles et al that we amass from every family party/sports event.

      Once you make your way onsite, follow the signs directing you to the recycle area. Pass the guard gate, proceed driving CAUTIOUSLY to Door 1 (be weary of garbage trucks and all kinds of industrial vehicles and machinery). At the stop sign in front of Door 1, a friendly attendant will bring out blue bins for you to fill up to your eco-friendly heart's content.

      Present an ID for their records and once you're done filling the bins and getting weighed out, take your paper receipt to the Admin Office (drive behind the the blue bldg and look for the '500' address on the left hand corner office). They'll give you cash up to $100. Anything over that amount will have to be mailed to you as a check. Today we barely made the cash max, as our two-carloads racked up $93.

      Blue Line, l have been coming here for some time now, l have never been turned away or disappointed with this intake center. Many people say different things about this location; but l am setting the record straight. This place has always been my favorite Spot to take my Crap/ junk for a reasonable price; and all this without any hassles. They don't ask for much, just that you be safe for one, and properly Cover Tarp your junk that you are bringing in to processed. My Props , peace and blessings go out for this place , because they also work hard every day and have to put up with some real happenings on a daily basis. Thanks Blue Line for taking my Crap/ junk hassle free every time.

      I was over charged by $199.
      I called and left a message that there was no way I had 3000 lbs in a half ton truck. An employee called me back the following Monday. Initially, she said there was nothing they could do because their scales are never wrong and are tested by the county. I said I was disputing the charge with my credit card company and wanted to speak with a Supervisor. The same employee called me back and said they looked at another camera angle and agreed with me and refunded my $199. I am giving them a good rating because the dump was a smooth experience and they rectified the overcharge.

      I've never been to a recycling station before so this was a very new experience for me. I had a container of sharps I needed to discard and was directed to come to the Blue Line Transfer station. Their operational process here is very efficient - every employee from start to finish knew exactly what to do and was able to point me to my next step to minimize any confusion on my part. The lady at the front even helped me to skip the long line of people queued up to dispose of their larger furniture items since all I had was sharps, which was really nice of her.

      I think my experience may have been different if I had other items to dispose of, but for my first visit, I was satisfied with my experience here.

      Great place to dispose of your old junk. If you have an open bed truck, make sure you cover it with a tarp or else it will be a $20 extra fee. The sign has listings from 2016 but its still the same price as of 2019.

      The dump is a warehouse. They charge per wight. Expect waiting time to be average 1 hr or more. If you have a dump bed with a lift you get to go on a shorter line. There is always a line, priority goes to the city garbge truck first while we all wait. -1 one star since sometime the line doesnt move and no one tells you if you can skip ahead if you carry other items and didnt have to wait in the long garbage line. Therefore I can tell you now; If you carry concrete or wood waste you can skip to the other side of warehouse dont have to wait Also make sure you have a tarp over your truck bed otherwise they charge $20 more.

      So sick and tired of their Nazi rules about having your load covered with a tarp. A cargo net covering the load is sufficient and complies with CVC 23115. (a) No vehicle transporting garbage, swill, used cans or bottles, wastepapers, waste cardboard, ashes, refuse, trash, or rubbish, or any noisome, nauseous, or offensive matter, or anything being transported for disposal or recycling shall be driven or moved upon any highway unless the load is totally covered in a manner that will prevent the load or any part of the load from spilling or falling from the vehicle.

      From now on I'm driving to Recology SF because they aren't total douchebags out to get that extra $20 bucks from people.

      Very nice place for the contractors.
      It's very convenient for dumping the garbage from remodeling or any renovation Construction.
      They accept many different things like concrete, drywall cabinets plumbing and electrical electrical and some of the appliances.
