How to recycle / dispose foam packaging

We accept foam packaging, or polystyrene

• in your regular trash
• as trash at the Shady Grove Transfer Station and Processing Facility.

Local "mailing solution" stores may accept packing peanuts for reuse. Put your peanuts into a bag or box and take them to a location near you.

Find a recycling location for foam peanuts, or "loose fill", and other foam packaging, using the EPS Industry Alliance lookup tool.
