Please do not put plastic materials—including Styrofoam, flower pots, hoses, PVC pipe, pool covers, etc.—in your recycling containers. They are not recyclable, but they are often reusable. Many nurseries are happy to take back plastic flowerpots, while many mailing and packaging stores, including The UPS Store Etc. and Kinko's, welcome donations of clean Styrofoam packaging peanuts. If you can't find an outlet to reuse these materials or reuse them yourself, please secure them in a bag and place them in your refuse container.
