Recycle smarter
Now!
GreenU is working to make offices on the Coral Gables campus more sustainable with a new program that recycles office paper separately from single stream recycling. Find specific office paper recycling bins by your copier machine—either a tall blue bin or a grey rolling cart. Help reduce waste in the workplace and save trees by disposing clean office paper in these dedicated bins. Continue recycling empty cans, bottles, lightweight cardboard, and newspapers in the tall blue recycling bins located in either the kitchen, lounge, or hallway. Learn more.
