  1. UAA Recycle Program By: Tyler Morris

  2. Overview: • The Recycle Program has moved their operations from the student government (USUAA) to the Sustainability Office under the Administrative Services Department. • What has changed?

  3. Change? • Location of the website • Direct overview from a staff member (UAA Sustainability Director) • Location of our office/HQ

  4. What Hasn’t Changed: • Mixed paper & cardboard recycling is still collected by UAA students. • The e-mail address for the recycle program is still: recycle@uaa.alaska.edu • The program will continue weekly recycle pickups on the main campus, and at the same locations within the buildings.

  5. Recycling in Your Building: • How does it work? • When do we pick up recycling? • What if we want another bin? • What resources are available?

  6. How does it work? • Recycling at UAA is a joint effort between the recycle workers and the staff, faculty and students. • If staff, faculty and students want to recycle, they must put their mixed paper and/or cardboard in a blue recycle bin. It might take a little effort on their part, but if they are willing, it can really make a difference in the long run.

  7. How it works (cont.) • If an office or department on campus recycles, they usually have one large blue recycle bin located in a central area (usually in the copyroom/mailroom). • Staff and faculty normally have a box or bin that fits under a desk or in their workspace, and whenever the box or bin gets full, they take it and dump it into the central recycle bin. • Sometimes it’s close enough to even take recycling from their desk or work area directly to the central recycle bin.

  8. How does it work (cont.) • Finally, for the main on-campus buildings, the recycling is collected from the central bins by the recycle crew, and is handled by us and the recycle center from there on out.

  9. When do we pick up recycling? • Recycling gets collected every Friday (unless the campus is closed) for on-campus buildings. • Recycling for off-campus buildings gets collected on a weekday, and varies from semester to semester depending on class and school schedules. For this Spring 09 semester, recycling for off-campus buildings is collected on Wed.

  10. New office/department Recycling • If you notice that an office/department in your building is without easy access to a centrally located recycle bin, please contact us via e-mail or phone call, and we’ll try to deliver a bin within a couple of weeks.
