Recyclables generated by students and staff should be place in a blue recycle bin. This includes bottles, cans and paper (single stream recycling). These bins are emptied by custodial staff.
If you are a staff member looking to recycle your waste and: (a) didn’t get recycling pickup, or, (b) are missing a recycling bin – you may contact: Custodial Services at 545-0200 to obtain assistance from your area custodial supervisor.
If you are a student living in a campus residence hall, your room is provided with a black (or beige) trash bin and a blue recycling bin to use for storage of your single stream recycling. Except in a few smaller living areas, each floor of your residence hall has a Waste Room/Closet where you may deposit your bottles, cans and paper recycling. Students living in Central, Northeast and North Apts must carry their trash and recyclables to a collection point or enclosure on the exterior of the building.
Campus dining commons have been provided with recycling containers on their loading docks.
The details on which materials can be placed in the single stream bins are explained on Recycle Bottles, Cans and Paper but are also visible in the form of bookmarks and recycling guidelines that have been distributed or posted throughout the campus.
