Recycling On Campus

Resources for Recycling On-Campus

In order to recycle smart, you have to know what to recycle, right? A great resource for what is recyclable on campus is Facilities Operations and Development's Zero Waste Recycling page.

And you can find a comprehensive list of items that tells you what is acceptable and unacceptable to put in the recycling bin. There is also a page with 10 tips for recycling on-campus.

One of our office’s favorite tips is that location is really important when recycling on-campus. Be sure to read signage before recycling or throwing something away. One of Ohio State's more common recycling signs for on-campus is to the right.
