Our COVID-19 Policies

Out of consideration for those waiting to get in, please bring in your materials fully sorted with caps off. This will decrease your time in the yard and allow for others to recycle as well. Also, gates close to everyone at 10:50AM (for lunch) and 2:50PM (closing). Thank you!

VALCORE is the only non-profit Community Recycling in Vallejo, CA. Read all about our history and involvement in the community as well as ways you can help.
