2025 Styrofoam Recycling Event
Calendar Date:
Please don't toss your styrofoam! Recycle It at our FREE Collection Event!
The Sustainability Advisory Committee has partnered with the Gilford NH transfer station to offer styrofoam recycling on October 25th from 9am-11am. We encourage you to save your styrofoam and bring your items to Exeter Public Works for drop off during those hours. For more details on what products are and are not allowed, click the info sheet below.
Help us avoid adding this unnecessary waste to the landfill.
Gilford has a styrofoam densifier system where clean styrofoam can be compressed into a product they sell to manufacturers that re-use it to create things like styrofoam insulation and other products. It saves them money because styrofoam is a bulky expensive item to trash and they turn it into a commodity.
If you want to volunteer to help that day, please contact Kristen Murphy kmurphy@exeternh.gov
