VALCORE Recycling is a Non-profit recycling center that accepts bottles/cans (Buyback) and donations (Other Recyclables). Due to circumstances beyond our control, our buyback/donations program will be CLOSED on Saturdays until further notice. Our monthly Saturday Paper Shredding program is still available, though!
ALL donations and MON-FRI Paper Shredding: At this time, cardboard, paper, dry clothes (in plastic bags), books and paper shredding will be preferred between 9AM-10AM, but are available daily from 9AM-1PM and 2PM-4PM. Out of consideration for those waiting to get in, please bring in your materials fully sorted with caps off.

Recycling
Report
VALCORE only takes California Redemption Value (CRV) labeled beverage containers for Buyback. Donations of other items, such as books, batteries, ink and toner cartridges and clothing/textiles are also accepted. Please note that we close exactly at 1:00PM (for lunch) and 4:30PM (closing). Please arrive early enough so that you may finish sorting by those respective closing times; we close gates to incoming customers 10mins before closing as well.
Recycling Procedure
Report
Upon entering our facility by car, please pull as far forward as possible to allow others to enter the yard. There are two lanes. Please note that during your visit, you may be asked to pull your car forward to help with traffic flow. Please separate between CRV and non-CRV as well. Please remove any caps or lids, but they may be included with the bottles to be weighed.
