Recycling Locations

On Campus
There are two large Abitibi Paper Retriever bins on campus designated for recycling paper materials (e.g., newspaper, magazines, catalogues, office paper, mail, FLATTENED cardboard boxes, and BAGGED shredded paper).  These bins are located near

• Engineering (MERC 3027)

When using the Abitibi bins we ask that you

• keep the bin lids closed
• bag shredded paper and puncture the bags to remove air

NEW! Other paper recycling bins called HOTSPOTS are located throughout most buildings on campus.  The Physical Plant will collect paper from the HOTSPOTS twice a week.

Bins for aluminum cans are located near most snack machines and office paper bins can be found in most computer/printer rooms on campus.
