Special handling. Don't put in any bin.

Drop-off guidelines for Styrofoam recycling

Only clean Styrofoam is accepted—this means it must be free of debris and must not have come into contact with raw meat or fish.

Recology only accepts solid blocks of polystyrene foam. Items like meat trays, packing peanuts, and pellets are not eligible for drop-off.

You can recycle clean Styrofoam blocks for free at the Recology San Francisco Transfer Station. Visit the Recology website to learn more.
