Vaca Recycling is a recycling center located in the parking lot of a PEMEX gas station. They specialize in accepting CRV-eligible items such as aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and glass bottles. The facility does not accept other materials like cardboard, wood, e-waste, used appliances, furniture, paint, used oil, concrete, tires, copper, or steel. The recycling process at Vaca Recycling is straightforward. Customers sort their recyclables into the provided bins, bring them to the scale, and get their items weighed. The staff is helpful, though they primarily speak Spanish. The English-proficient employee works at the scale, making the transaction smooth. Customers can then redeem their cash at the convenient store in the same lot. Reviewers describe the experience as hassle-free, fast, and easy. The parking lot is small but manageable. While Vaca Recycling does not accept all types of recyclables, it is considered the preferred recycling center in the area for the materials they do accept. Customers appreciate the courteous staff and the convenience of the location.
Quick and easy, just had to separate glass, aluminum and plastic in 3 bins. Received a voucher and got cash inside the gas station. There was no line when they opened at 0900.

I asked if they take cardboard, they don't and said try the Davis st. Recycling spot behind Right Way Garage Doors, free there. Just need to go there for cardboard recycling Tuesday-Saturday 9 to 3pm.
