Specialty Recycling

For on campus, state-funded buildings, you may submit a Recycling Request Form if five (5) or fewer bulky items and five (5) or fewer bags of waste.

Submit a Facilities Service Request if you need a clean-out, have more than 5 items, or are not included in the above criteria.

For issues with active property ID tags, please contact Material Management.

The Freon must be removed prior to disposal and must be completed by Facilities Management. Please submit a Facilities Service Request requesting ‘Freon Removal’.  Once you have a Work Order #, submit a Recycling Request Form for bulky items and attach the Work Order # to the unit for removal. There will be no additional cost for removal of the actual unit.

All lab glass (broken included) can be recycled by placing in a sealed, labeled box. The box can be marked “Lab Glass for Recycling” and left in the corridor for daily servicing. Any cardboard box is acceptable so long as it is intact and can hold the contents safely for the custodians to dispose. For the safety of our custodians, do not overload the lab glass boxes with more than 15lbs of glass.

If you have large amounts greater than 15lbs or multiple boxes, please submit a Facilities Service Request.

If your department is clearing out hardbound books, or books in large amounts, submit a Facilities Service Request so that Facilities can arrange for a safe disposal, as it can be dangerous for custodians to lift heavy weights. These books will be brought to a specialized book recycling bin for proper disposal.

Small amounts must be broken down and flat. It can be placed next to the blue recycling receptacles in the building for pick-up.
