How To Sort Your Waste On Campus
On campus we have three types of waste: compost, recycling and landfill.
Compost
- Food waste is the most generally accepted compostable material.
- Since we bring our compost to a commercial composting facility on Bee's Ferry, we can also compost plant based plastic such as Greenstripe or EcoProduct items that are marked with a green stripe.
- At City Bistro and Marty's Place we have a pulper where you can dispose of any of these compostable items along with your food waste. Any items given out at these locations are compostable.
- At Liberty St. Food Hall, guests are asked to place their plastic cups in a separate bin from their other food waste and compostable items!
Recycling
- Recycling locations can be found throughout campus next to landfill bins.
- Look for bins for cans, paper and plastic.
