Bin Servicing

How often do we service our bins on campus?

Waste TypeFrequencyDetails
Bertha Bins3x/Week +We hand sort recyclables from the outdoor waste receptacles on campus. Ensuring materials end up in the proper place on campus in an attempt to prevent potential contamination or additional waste from going to the landfill.
Big Bellies3x/Week +Big bellies often contain a compost receptacle as well. We complete the same tasks as with the Bertha bins, while also sorting through the compost bins.
E-Waste1x/Month +We collect small handheld electronics from around 60 bin locations on campus. We then transport them to Distribution and Logistical Services where they are collected by an E-Waste Recycler. Small batteries from our bins are sorted and taped by AS Recycling, then transported to environmental health and safety.
Lab WasteBiweeklyIn collaboration with FLOW, we collect Lab Waste biweekly and send donations to Art From Scrap.
