@#%&****%$#@ Styrofoam....

[AngliaGT]

WHY do they still make this stuff? - you can't recycle it,
but you can put it in the garbage - Why?
I've been self-taught to recycle everything that I can,so I get
frustrated with things that go directly to the garbage can.
I think that we should be more like Germany,who's laws say that
you need to recycle a percentiege of EVERYTHING that you buy.
Why do we need to throw most of this stuff out?

Doug- There's a styrofoam manufacturing plant not too far away from where I live. Dart is a huge company and they offer drop-off recycling of your styrofoam.
Yes, it can be recycled....

Hmmm, I've been filling trash bags with peanuts and smaller pcs, larger ones get tossed into the attic of my workshop, seems to be helping a lot. saving them for the 25 yrs. bubble wrap and the air-cushion fillers also. :eagerness:

Kelly is nuts about the stuff. I got bags and bags of it.

Mixed with gasoline it makes a decent napalm...so I'm told. :highly_amused:

Thought about using it for insulation but worry about fumes in case of a fire.

Fire has deadly fumes in any case, Billy.

I figure we'll need all the help we can get.

I use the packing peanuts when I ship my strut kits to customers. I would be interested in talking to you regarding obtaining some of your excess inventory of these non-edible taste treats. Shipping should be very reasonable!

Shipping should be very reasonable!

Yeah, but what would you use for packing material? :grin:
