I've had a lot of people reaching out to me to find out when we were reopening. I have made the decision to close the business and retire. After closing for the pandemic I realized how much I enjoyed the extra time to spend with family and doing the things I love that I never really had the time for. We had a really great run for 11 plus years doing over 59 million cans and establishing ourselves as the top center in Auburn. I was truly blessed with some amazing customers and my time serving you all was an honor. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for an incredible ride. I would also like to thank Sandy, The Can Princess, for always be there to help keep the place running smoothly and Tim whose loyalty and hard work was appreciated. And a special thank you to my wife Patty, The Can Queen, for her tremendous support. I wish you all the very best. Thank you.

I have received some questions from customers on what to do with their returnables while I am shutdown. While I am not one to recommend my competitors, I also realize people need every dollar they can get during these tough times. My recommendation is the Frosted Nickel on Clark St. I've had the opportunity to confer with the owner recently and after talking with him I am convinced they are the best ones in Auburn to bring your returnables to. We have been vicious competitors for years but I was impressed that Sam Frost respected me enough to come talk to me face to face. They certainly get my endorsement while I am shutdown.

I truly hope that each and every one of you is safe and healthy. My family and myself are doing fantastic. Shutting down was a tough decision but it was absolutely the right thing to do. I wish you all the very best and regardless of what happens to my business going forward I am extremely grateful to have been given the opportunity to serve all of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and be safe my friends.

The Can Kings will not be open until further notice due to impact from the Covid19 virus. We appreciate the support all of our customers have given to us. Be safe and healthy and together we'll get thorough these tough times. I will keep you posted if and when our status changes.

As we continue with our one customer in the lobby policy, the elderly and disabled will be granted immediate access and go the the head of the line. Thank you for your understanding.

Well its certainly been slow at The Can Kings but I understand and don't blame everybody from utilizing caution. Unfortunately we are now a 1 man operation since I was forced to lay off my staff, I hope to have them back soon. I would not even be there if it wasn't for Tomra's unwillingness to work with me on deferring the lease on my machines. Looking forward to better times once this crisis passes. Can't wait to get my employees back, I'm lonely over there. Be safe everyone, better times are coming.

If in my judgement somebody appears ill they will be asked to leave. I'm no doctor but I absolutely have a responsibility to all my customers and myself, These are difficult times and I strongly feel our health is more important than money. I still believe that closing was the best course of action but unfortunately TOMRA refuses to defer the lease on my equipment and with my wife laid off and me being ineligible for unemployment I simply have no other options. Thank you for your understanding.

For the safety of our customers only one customer at a time we be allowed in the lobby, the only exception being somebody dropping off a precounted load. I\m asking our customers to please wait on the porch or in your vehicle. We also have a hand sanitizer dispenser for your use. Thank you for your understanding in these trying times.

Great news!!! Non essential businesses may stay open as long as they only have 1 employee on the premises. Henceforth, I will be reopening tomorrow at 9 am. We will have further safety measures in place for our customers which will be posted in the morning. Boy, that was a short retirement. See you all in the morning and be safe.😉😉😉😉

As we get ready to shut our doors for awhile, I would like to really thank Tim and Sandy for all they've done for me and the business. Even knowing they were laid off as of Monday, they came in here and brought the heat this weekend. We really had a relaxed fun time and got a whole lot of work done to boot. Sandy has been here a while and Tim is one of the hardest working most loyal employees I have ever had. Thanks guys for all you have done, I will miss working with you. 😔😔😔😔

I have a handful of long time customers who always bring in large loads who I always give 6 cents per returnable, kind of as a reward for being such loyal customers. One of those gentleman came in today with a load of 1500. When I went to pay him he refused to take 6 cents saying just pay me the 5. He went on to say times are tough and he was always impressed with how fair and nice I've been to him. As I head into the final 5 hours before we shut our doors, I reflect back on people like this will be the absolute thing I'll miss the most.
