Re: [Amc-list] OT: Foam recycling



Good Morning Mark,

  It's not for everyone, but if you have an unused corner of the 
basement or garage, perhaps you could save a car-load of hard-to-recycle 
stuff and make one worth while trip?

  I did a quick search on Earth911.Org and found that the closest place 
for you is in Greensburg, Pa., not worth a trip for a few bags of 
stryofoam.  However, that's closer than the place I take my stuff.  
Since the place is so far, I make a morning of it, take my Dad along, 
have breakfast, and take a whole station wagon (or truck) load at a 
time.  The place I found, Recycling Services, Inc. in Pottstown, Pa. 
takes just about everything.  The place is 72 miles from home and takes 
me an 1-1/2 hours to get there, so pretty much all morning for a round 
trip, but I get to spend that time with my Dad, BS, and eat a nice 
breakfast.

Regards,

Russ (from Pa.)
