Polystyrene? Not Recyclable
Description
Don’t recycle polystyrene foam—even if it looks like plastic. This common mistake contaminates recycling streams and can break down waste systems. A waste expert with 13+ years’ experience confirms: polystyrene belongs in your general waste bin, not recycling or paper. Rules vary by location—some areas allow bagged disposal next to your bin, others require drop-off at hardware stores, and a few ban it entirely. Always check with your local council before tossing it.
