You might be surprised at which packaging is NOT recyclable, or needs to be returned to a store. Here's Amazon's page about it.
To recycle clean styrofoam, see this site. Do NOT put it in our recycling dumpster.

| Plastic Film Recycling |
This page has good illustrations of what their affiliates accept, which is more than what the Ralphs container indicates.
It also has a link to search for locations, and results lean heavily toward Target, Kohl's, Vons, Food4Less, and, ironically, the Waste Management location on Construction Circle.

This page has good illustrations of what their affiliates accept, which seems a little narrower than Plastic Film Recycling. However, the link to search for locations leads you directly to the Plastic Film Recycling site!
The PFR site says:
*Not all items are accepted at all drop-off locations. Check with your local drop-off to see what is accepted.
So maybe pick your favorite location, and check before you bring your first batch.
The PFR site says:
Do not include:
- Degradable/compostable bags or film packaging
- Pre-washed salad mix bags
- Frozen food bags
- Candy bar wrappers
- Chip bags
- Six-pack rings
But I encourage you to read the site yourself.
