Resources for Waste Disposal

Most of the waste produced on campus can be recycled. By taking part in recycling you can help to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill.  By recycling you will be helping to preserve natural resources and protect the environment for you and for future generations.

AS Recycling provides recycling bins for offices and departments. Contact AS Recycling ext. 5033 to request a bin for everyday use, a special event, or an office clean out. If you have a surplus of recyclable materials in your office and your weekly pick-up is several days away, call the AS Recycling office to schedule a special pick-up
