A typical arrangement of recycling and waste containers on University campuses, from left to right: plastic, glass, and metal containers; non-recyclable trash; mixed paper.

Each recycling location has a bin for mixed paper/cardboard and one for plastic, glass, and cans. Be sure to separate your recyclable materials into the proper bin. All plastic, metal, and glass items must be empty and clean.

If recycling bins from your location are missing, please call:

School of Medicine and Dentistry — 275-9203
