Have your Styrofoam meat trays been piling?
There’s relief in sight as the City of Richmond is resuming its Styrofoam collection after it was paused for a month after the heavy flooding across the southern province.
Foam packaging will once again be accepted at the Lynas Lane recycling depot starting Dec. 27, just in time to recycle all that packaging from Christmas presents and food packages.
Foam and glass collection were both suspended on Nov. 22 as a major recycling plant in Abbotsford was flooded during the November atmospheric river.
Glass collection – which residents can place by the curbside on regular pickup days – resumed two weeks ago.
