    I have a huge pile of large pieces of cardboard and styrofoam left over from appliances and furniture. It would take months to dispose of it in my bin collection, is there somewhere I can bring it in a few trips in bulk to dispose of and / or recycle?

    That's great, how small do the pieces need to be? They'll be small enough to fit in my car but not small enough to fit in a wheelie bin.

    I've that option for some stuff but the rest is from the likes of Amazon and other places that don't assemble stuff.
