Where are the Trash and Recycling Bins?
 |
Central bins for recycling and trash are located on each floor, typically in kitchenettes. Please bring items from your room and place them into the appropriate container.
There are three different bins:
- one for trash
- one for recyclable paper
- one for bottles & cans
| Recycling Storage Bins in the Student Rooms
Deskside recycling bins are available for each student room. At the beginning of the year, these bins are stacked in each kitchenette.
The bins are for your convenience to store recyclables in your room until you have the opportunity to bring them to the recycling closet down the hall. Just remember that you are responsible for bringing your recyclables to the recycling area and placing them into the appropriate container.
