The next Montgomery County styrofoam recycling event taking place on Saturday, June 28th is going to be a collaboration among different community groups to encourage more recycling and reuse. This year, the 7 Circle of Kindness is teaming up with several local organizations that are passionate about preserving our environment and offer many services, allowing for reuse, repurposing, and recycling possibilities that go beyond traditional curbside recycling provided in the greater Dayton region.

You can drop off unwanted household and hard-to-recycle items listed below for free at the Cox Media Group Ohio Media Center parking lot (1611 S. Main St., Dayton, OH 45409) on Saturday, June 28, 2025, between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM.
