No, unfortunately expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam), even with a recycling number, is not accepted at the regional Material Recovery Facility where we take our recyclables. The technology to recycle Styrofoam does exist. There just isn't a demand for it in our market. One problem stems from its limited usage when it is recycled. Another issue for some places, even when a market exists, is food, tape, glue, and other contamination. The closest place that I am aware is in Kansas City at ACH Foam Technologies. You can find them here: https://www.achfoam.com/recycle-eps.aspx They recycle: #6 molded polystyrene foam plastic that is white, clean, dry and free of debris: insulated coolers or protective packaging for electronics, household goods, and toys. They do not recycle: food-service cups, plates, takeout containers, meat trays, etc. or all non-foam polystyrene plastics. They do seem to have a mail-back program, though this may not be practical for you. I hope this helps! ~Jim
