Expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam packaging is an excellent material for recycling. The following map will help you identify the best method to get your foam to the nearest and most convenient collection center. The most recent map can be found on the Internet at www.epspackaging.org. If you are located near Styrotek, Inc. or we deliver boxes to your facility recycling can be accomplished by sending the broken boxes back to the plant. If the containers are shipped out of the area Styrotek, Inc. is willing to help find a recycler. Recycling is not available in all areas of the United States and Styrotek, Inc. will not be financially responsible for shipping the containers to a recycling facility.
Each EPS collection site has distinct criteria regarding the types of material they can accept. The locations provided are intended to include recycling centers for expanded polystyrene transport packaging ONLY. To obtain information about other polystyrene recycling opportunities, including foodservice, rigid durable goods and other plastics, please send your request by email or call AFPR at (410) 451-8340 to be referred to the correct information resource.
Please follow the instructions carefully to make sure you have a successful EPS recycling experience.
Recommended Action:
1. Once you have identified the closest collection site, call them to verify drop-off times and check to see what types of polystyrene material they accept.
2. Make sure your EPS is clean and free of any plastic film, loose parts or glued-on cardboard.
3. Check to see if they accept other recyclables to streamline your recycling efforts.
