Saturday, November 15, 2025, The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County Styrofoam Recycling Program will be suspended.
Starting 11/15/2025, the Styrofoam Recycling Program will stop collecting Styrofoam and other materials like packing peanuts. We apologize for any inconvenience this update may cause. The Defenders are working on resources to help limit use of Styrofoam.
We kindly ask our community to avoid leaving or disposing any Styrofoam at or near our drop-off sites after 11/15/25. At this time, please dispose of your foam in your own curbside garbage bins.
Thank you!
