Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is easy and cheap to produce and has lots of applications because of its properties. These properties however, also make it a hard material to recycle. This paper focuses on a rich mathematical model for the collection of waste EPS in order to improve the recyclability of the material. A real-world scenario is simulated and the result is a model for routing different types of vehicles which can also be used to make strategic decisions.
