Recycling Beyond the Blue Bin

The City of Cleveland Heights has partnered with Edgewater Surf, to collect EPS Foam twice a month, densify it for transport, and send it to a processor, which will recycle it into a product that is used to improve energy efficiency in homes.

A permanent  drop-off location is accessible from the parking lot at Forest Hill Park. Enter from Lee Boulevard, just north of Monticello Boulevard. The drop-off area will be secured with a combination lock. Participants will place their EPS in one of eight bulk storage bags within the enclosure. 

Cleveland Heights residents will need to register to obtain the access code. Register here.
