City Of Salem: Styrofoam Recycling Event

Press release from the City of Salem:

December 9, 2021

The Cities of Salem and Beverly are partnering to offer residents a Styrofoam Collection Day.

Hold on to your Styrofoam after the holidays, Save That Stuff will be collecting it to recycle. The event will be a drive through event at 401 Bridge St, Salem’s Community Life Center from 9am-1pm on January 8th. Please only bring rigid white expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam); no packaging peanuts or food service containers, such as meat trays, clamshells, or Styrofoam cups can be accepted. While Styrofoam cannot be recycled curbside, Save That Stuff has densifiers that can process the material for recycling. We’re excited to offer residents a way to sustainably dispose of all the Styrofoam they may have received from the holiday season.
