Earlier this month, Dart Container participated in a one-day collection program for polystyrene products. The collection program was held in conjunction with the American River Parkway Foundation and Keep California Beautiful, and was held Sept. 19.
Through the program, Dart encouraged the public to drop off their polystyrene products at containers scattered throughout the Sacramento area.
"We are truly excited to celebrate the Great American River Clean-Up by providing a location where residents can conveniently drop off and recycle their foam products," said Michael Westerfield, corporate director of Recycling Programs at Dart Container.
Additionally, Dart reports that it is driving recycling efforts from its California manufacturing facilities in Lodi and Corona to workplaces across the state, and from its warehouse recycling centers to consumers’ homes in curbside recycling efforts, such as L.A.’s "New to Blue."
