If you have styrofoam piling up after all your gifts have been opened, the Public Works Department will offer a chance to recycle it – and also shred paper and dispose of old tires.
The Recycling event will be held Saturday, Jan. 14 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Watertown Recycling Center (on Green River Way off Waltham).
Bring your styrofoam cups, peanuts and takeout containers to the event. You can also have your sensitive documents shredded while you watch. Tires will be accepted, but no rims.
The event is open only to Watertown residents and IDs will be required. No business or commercial items will be accepted.
