York College Recycling Procedures

Every building in New York City is required by law to recycle its waste. The Green Initiatives Committee has developed the “York College Recycling Procedures” in order to assist in the process. 1. Paper and Cardboard Recycling A few types of paper shouldn’t be recycled: tissues, paper napkins; heavily soiled paper; coated food containers; paper plates or cups; and hardcover books. • Small cardboard containers for paper recycling will be placed in every office, classroom and hallway. • Please place your filled cardboard container outside the office. Custodial workers will pick up the paper at scheduled times. • Royal Recycling will collect this paper once a week.
