We are pleased to report that clear plastic clamshell containers (like the ones used for berries) are recyclable in Wilmette’s curbside program if there is a #1 symbol on them. Rinse and close containers before recycling.

Styrofoam recycling

You can still drop it off on the front porch of 1315 Central Avenue until Sunday, January 9, 2022 at 6pm. (Do not drop off at Public Works!)
Styrofoam will be taken to Abt Electronics to be melted into a material that can be reused. Thanks to UMF/Perfect Clean Corporation for the use of their van for transporting the materials.
Remember:
  • Styrofoam is not collected in Wilmette’s curbside program
  • White Styrofoam only
  • No peanuts
  • No food containers
