the city website has a link to some company that you can mail it to but you have to pay postage fuck that

A friend of mine said he takes peanuts to shipping stores and hands them over. When I moved he took 3 trash bags of peanuts away for me and said he was going to turn them in. I have not personally done that though, so YMMV.

just put them in a box in your driveway and then pour gasoline on them. They just disappear!

there is a recycling place off of 70 towards brier creek that would probably take them

4/10/2013 12:50:42 PM

the correct term is expanded polystyrene

recycling doesn't make a difference anyway

we used to recycle our styrofoam lunch trays in elementary school. (at least the teachers told us they were being recycled... they could have been dumping them in the trash after we left for all we knew.)

don't forget polyisocyanurate

4/10/2013 1:46:51 PM

yeah, i've taken the packing peanuts to the UPS store on a number of occasions...all they ask is that they're clean

i think durham recycles styrofoam...i don't believe that wake county does

4/10/2013 2:50:35 PM

Just burn it. Recycles it right back into the environment

4/10/2013 3:29:55 PM

its in the trash can

but it takes up THE WHOLE FUCKING TRASH CAN

i really hate throwing a styrofoam because it's easily recycled...but most places won't take it because they can't make money on it

i do, at least, take the packing peanuts to UPS

4/10/2013 3:42:28 PM

the packing peanuts had gotten all dusty adn nasty and shit in my basement i did not think ups would want them

4/10/2013 3:43:38 PM

it burns a really interesting shade of black

Are they the cornstarch peanuts? If so, just dump them outside somewhere and spray them down with water

4/10/2013 4:17:15 PM

And if they aren't, spray them with gasoline. Poof! Gone.

4/10/2013 4:42:44 PM

^^ i thought those biodegradable peanuts were made of rice (not that i have anything to base this on, it was just my assumption)

i've eaten a couple...they might be good with peanut butter

Put peanuts in bottom of pot then potting soil and plant. Helps with drainage and weight of your potted plant.
