Recycling on Campus

Recycling on campus isn't hard at all!  Each dorm room comes equipped with a blue recycling bin (see above) that can be emptied at a recycling station (separate paper and plastic bins) located near your area trash dumpster.  The recycling program was updated a few years ago, and now all different types of plastic can be recycled.  For battery recycling, you need to schedule a pickup with Virginia Tech's Environmental Health and Safety Services (see the VT website for info).
