Most foam #6 products can be identified by the resin identification code stamped on the material. Types of foam #6 are often mistakenly referred to as Styrofoam®, which is a registered trademark of the Dow Chemical Company for extruded polystyrene foam made for thermal insulation and craft applications. The types of foam products that are accepted can vary between processing facilities. For example, many processors do not accept colored foam or foam that has been treated with flame retardants. Check with your recycling facility to confirm the types of foam that are accepted.
Foam cups and food service products
Foam #6 food service containers include drink cups, food trays and clamshell containers. Food service foam containers must be in recyclable condition. Coffee and soda cups do not need to be rinsed; however, containers used for food need to be wiped or rinsed.
Recycling is offered curbside in some communities. Some restaurants and other businesses collect foam cups for recycling by mail. In addition, some school districts have started recycling programs for foam #6 lunch trays and containers.

Foam packing peanuts
Packaging peanuts are made with a variety of materials. Some, but not all, packing peanuts carry the #6 recycling symbol. When combined with foam #6 products, non-EPS packing peanuts are a contaminant. For that reason, packing peanuts should not be commingled with other foam recycling.
