Do you have Styrofoam or electronic waste you need to dispose of? Bring it to the Lynnwood Operations and Maintenance Center from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., June 13.
Styrofoam MUST BE CLEAN! All tape and stickers must be removed. No “soft” Styrofoam. Styrofoam loose or in CLEAR plastic bags ONLY.
Clear bags are best for the community; this way staff can make a quicker evaluation when accepting the foam materials. If they are contaminated, it is easier for us to ask the residents to sort and separate these materials before dropping them off.
