Block foam recycling event set for Aug. 7
Thursday, July 29, 2010
Got block foam? Clark County and the city of Vancouver will sponsor another free block foam recycling event on Aug. 7 in Fisher’s Landing.
Along with disposing of block foam, households will be able to drop off computers and other electronic devices — but no televisions or microwave ovens.
For a list of free e-waste disposal sites that will take old TVs, go to RecyclingA-Z.com.
The event will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Fisher’s Landing Transit Center, 3510 S.E. 164th Ave.
Total Reclaim, a Portland recycling business, grinds and melts Styrofoam into ingots to be turned into pellets used to manufacture picture frames, office products and other items.
The foam can be any color, but it must be clean and bagged or boxed.
