  • BLUE bins are for PAPER.

Place your recyclables from your office space, residence hall room, or before and after classes in these designated areas.

THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN RECYCLING

·        Please WASH all bottles and cans before placing them in receptacles when possible.  This limits insects and smells from the bins until they are picked-up and moved to a central location.
