What is the best way to dispose of this furniture and mattress foam, if no safe recycle is possible? This foam, common in dumps and yards across America, contains a toxic flame retardant.

  1. While foam products are not biodegradable, we can and do recycle all kinds of foam products. Foam products are 100% recyclable and they are used to make new packaging and other products every day. If you are looking for a site to recycle at, go to the link and ont he right side are three links to search for a site that will accept your molded foam.

    One of the most common uses for recycling is to make carpet pads to go under carpets.  I think it's called composite foam.


  2. YES get a can of M.E.K. this is a paint thinner pour it in a large container and slowly put the foam in it, it makes a good glue
