Q How do I get my recycling picked up around campus?
A Campus recycling bins are emptied weekly into three 8-yard recycling containers. If a bin becomes full for more than one day, please notify Sherri Walley at 546-4661.
Q Where do I put recycling from my office or classroom?
A For now, office and classroom recycling is collected informally and emptied into the nearest communal bin. (Additional service may be available in the future.)
Q Can I recycle shredded paper?
A Maybe, depending on the direction of the shredding! Long-fiber shred can be recycled. Short-fiber shred usually just becomes waste at the paper mill. So confetti or cross-cut shred should be placed in the trash at SCC. (It may also be placed in compost bins which are not currently available at the college.)
Q Where can I take my food scraps?
A Food-scrap recycling is available only at the PUB.
Q What can I do with electronics or batteries?
A Household batteries aren't allowed in recycling and button-shaped batteries aren't allowed in the garbage. There is currently no recycling option for either on campus.
Q What do I do with...?
A For information on recycling other items, call the city at (206) 546-2659 for a copy of the "Where to Take It" flyer. Check with King County Solid Waste for where to take unusual items.
