Dedham To Host Styrofoam Collection Event On Saturday, December 26th ♦ 10:00am-1:00pm
From the Sustainability Advisory Committee
The Town of Dedham Sustainability Committee will be hosting a Styrofoam collection event on Saturday, December 26th from 10:00am -1:00pm at the Dedham Middle School parking lot. The intent of this event is to capture Styrofoam packaging from holiday deliveries. Did you know that it takes 500 years for Styrofoam to decompose in a landfill?! Let’s recycle it!

ReFoamIt® will be on hand to collect and recycle white packing foam, as well as post consumer foam such as coffee cups, clamshells, and meat and produce trays. Please make sure that all of these items are clean and any post consumer items that were used with food must display the #6 recycling symbol. Along with Styrofoam ReFoamIt will be collecting #4 EPS, #5 PP, packing peanuts and bubble wrap. Please bag separately from your foam the peanuts and bubble wrap.
