About Us

The University of Washington has a comprehensive Recycling & Solid Waste Management Plan. This plan includes waste reduction, waste collection and disposal, administrative oversight, and outreach efforts designed to educate the campus community regarding recycling opportunities and services. Recycling at the University is designed to be visible and convenient and to maximize the recovery of waste.

For a brief overview of the recycling and solid waste program, watch UWTV’s program UW: A Leader in Sustainability, produced in October 2007.
