Dart Container Foam Recycling Drop-off - Mason

Frustrating for first time dropping off. Recycling is not in the large main campus complex. Wasted 20 minutes and expensive gas driving all over the place. It was a Saturday so not a soul in sight for directions. The recycling is on the other side of Howell road. I'm glad that the facility exists but if someone calls I would ask that Dart employees give more direction than "follow the signs".

First: the listed address for the recycling drop-off is deceiving. There is no signage for a "Hogsbeck Road" anywhere in sight. The access to the fenced in area with 4 large dumpsters for foam container recycling is accessed by turning south into the driveway entering from Howell Road. [Also: I went to the sight via Howell Road from the East and crossed no Expressway. I was expecting that as a landmark for knowing when i was near and ended up driving right past the place. I'm looking at map and satellite view- i cannot explain why/how the discrepancy- but from on Howell rd I did not cross over that 127. There was Dart Road then the Dart property then Cedar Street.] And: The information on the hours for recycling drop-off are not correct. I went in the early afternoon because the hours posted here online say they closed at 3pm. When i finally found the recycling containers (after turning around on Cedar Street) there was a large sign that said something like: Access to recycling collection containers is open to public 24 hours daily. I could have gone anytime instead of waiting to arrive during "business hours." As for the ease of dropping off foam containers and for the facility itself it's easy to get in and out (literally right next to Howell Road) and there are four large dumpsters to collect the items in. When i was there they were full but not overflowing- so all my trunk-full of foam fit alright. I give 5 stars mostly because it is the only place in the vicinity to accept foam to recycle and i would rather go out of my way to drop off here- than have it on my conscious by dumping in garbage dumpster at home.

Dart is leading the efforts in Free EPS recycling for the people.. Huge public service and it needs to go nationwide. Thanks for all you do for the earth!
