Now I have an hour round trip to the Lamsons Ln location. I'm not sure that much fuel is worth it. Not to mention Flo-Pac actually uses the stuff. Who knows where the waste authority has to take it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06127218245426444290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13697567.post-36673139327765581072012-02-01T17:25:25.081-05:002012-02-01T17:25:25.081-05:00They are no longer recycling at that center.

It's at the very end of the street, across the railroad tracks. They have recycling containers on the left - a couple hundred yards after you enter. There's a shipping container just for polystyrene with large bags available to put it in. A couple of my pieces were too big for the bags, so I stacked them against the wall. They also recycle electronics like TVs and such in a neighboring container. It's off the beaten path, but a welcome alternative to the landfill.Tom Hooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13055857118950681835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13697567.post-82425361194434466522011-01-17T16:46:37.514-05:002011-01-17T16:46:37.514-05:00This recycling site is still active Jan17,2011.

I used to live in the area, but now I drive 2 1/2 hours to recycle. Usually I combine it with visit to my son and friends. But it is well worth saving it and hauling it all the way from Northern New Jersey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13697567.post-38533722688597651652009-10-08T10:52:34.799-04:002009-10-08T10:52:34.799-04:00Thank you so much for this information.
