Cities of Salem and Beverly Announce Upcoming Styrofoam Collection Day

SALEM – Salem and Beverly are partnering once again to host Styrofoam Collection Day on Saturday, January 10, 2026 from 10:00am – 1:00pm.

 

Hold on to your Styrofoam – Casella (formerly Save That Stuff) will collect it to recycle! This will be a drive-through event January 10 at Beverly High School, 100 Sohier Road, Beverly, MA. Residents of Salem and Beverly may participate. There will also be a drop-off available January 9 at the Beverly Public Library during open hours.

 

Please bring only rigid white expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam). NO packaging peanuts or food service containers, such as meat trays, clamshells, or Styrofoam cups can be accepted.

 

While Styrofoam cannot be recycled curbside, Casella has densifiers that can process the material for recycling. We’re excited to offer residents a way to sustainably dispose of their Styrofoam!

Please stay in your vehicle the whole time and have items ready to unload in your trunk, truck bed or hatchback.
