Styrofoam Recycling

Styrofoam Recycling

  • Thanks to a partnership with Tiny House Community Development, Inc. and the Triad Foam Recycling Coalition, residents may now drop off their clean and dry Styrofoam packaging at one of our Styrofoam Recycling Trailers!
  •  Please make sure to only place clean foam takeout containers, packaging, egg cartons, and ridged Styrofoam like coolers. No pluck foam, flexible foam wrapping, peanuts or bubble wrap will be allowed. 
  • This trailer is only for Styrofoam and no other plastics. As always, if you are in doubt, please throw it out.
