Recycling at Trent
Trent University has several ways for students, staff, and faculty to recycle. Like the Blue Box program you use at home, our basic recycling system is split into two categories: paper products and a container mix. Each type of recycling must get into the correct bin.
In Trent's recycling program, we accept the following:
Paper Products:
- newspapers
- magazines
- catalogues
- office paper
- fax paper
- note paper
- envelopes
- junk mail
- coffee cups (no lids)
- corrugated cardboard boxboard: cereal boxes, facial tissue boxes, cracker boxes and laundry soap boxes
Containers:
- all plastic pop, water & juice bottles
- plastic yogurt, margarine & ice cream containers
- shampoo, detergent & soap bottles
- aluminum cans & foil
- all metal food containers
- cartons from milk, juice & drink boxes food & beverage glasses (this means that you must have purchased a type of food or beverage in this glass)
