So my point is: please make sure you'll use fewer resources bringing your styrofoam than will be gained from it. My guess is this probably means only do it by car if you're passing anyway, or walk or bike to the place.
Of course landfill is an issue too, so recycling avoids that.
To my mind the above is also a good reason we should be trying to phase out styrofoam.
