Medfield Green Month To Include Styrofoam Collection

The final collection for Medfield Green Month will take place this weekend, Oct. 25 & 26 from 9am- 1 pm, at the Transfer and Recycling Station.

Styrofoam packing blocks, foam coolers and foam shipping containers that are clean and of white material only will be collected for recycling.

Please remove any cardboard, labels, tape or stickers. No food items such as takeout containers, coffee cups or meat/produce trays. Styrofoam peanuts and bubble wrap will not be collected but may be given to local shipping centers for reuse. Additional volunteers for the collection are needed and welcome!

Medfield residents are reminded that as of Nov. 1 plastic bags will no longer be given at checkout by Medfield retailers and restaurants. Plastics used inside stores, such as produce and deli bags, as well as dry cleaning and newspaper bags will continue to be available. Reusable bags are available for purchase in several Medfield stores as well as online. Paper bags will be available if needed. Bringing your own bag is best!
