I applaud this depot because they are always fast and respectful and super helpful!
There is a very organized system to get people through ASAP. Cute memorabilia dot the space. A book stand for donated books near the front door is a great place to pick up a book or drop some off for others to enjoy. Best of all, for kids, a big jar of lollipops sits on the main counter. This would occupy my daughters as they tried to guess how many were in the jar. Oh, and how could I forget, this is the only depot I know with a sink with warm water, soap and towels if one needs a hand wash. This is the best depot!!!
I sort and categorize my refundables at home before I go, and also count them and put a paper with the appropriate number in each red tray. I tell the staff that they are welcome to check my numbers, but they express that they are pleased not to have to count, and they appreciate that the containers are sorted. It is nice to know that they trust me not to cheat them, which I certainly do not do. Their work is a valuable service to our environment, and, unfortunately, much under appreciated.
They are working very hard, friendly, nice and always help me when I bring the empty bottles and cans in. They make me feel cheerful all the time by their concern and smiles
