How to recycle packing peanuts You open up your box from that online retailer and are confronted with a box full of styrofoam packing peanuts. Rather than chuck them direct in the trash, reuse them! Foam peanuts can easily be reused dozens of times and they take hundreds of years to degrade once they're thrown out. But you don't ship stuff. What to do? If you're in the US, you can call an 1-800-828-2214 to find the nearest place that accepts peanuts or you can visit Loosefillpackaging.com and look up the address online. Are you a business and would like to have people bring you peanuts? You can join the program for $30. This covers the maintenance of the central 800 number. Buying new peanuts costs around $10 per bag, so if you go through more than 3 a year, this will pay for itself.
