Any foam materials having the PS6 symbol will be accepted. White food containers (rinsed) and white foam packaging should be put in a tied-up plastic bag.

Black or color foam items should be placed in a separate bag. Foam peanuts and bubble wrap will also be accepted in separate bags. Padded envelopes or other packing material and foam insulation will not be accepted.
