Outdoor Recycling Stations

Public place recycling stations (pictured below) have been installed around our campuses to provide more recycling options.

The stations have been designed with a x-ray view of the items that can go in each bin. If you are unsure of which bin to put something into (or are just a bit lazy) then aim for red to reduce contamination. Below are a list of acceptable items for each side of the recycling station.

Landfill (Red)

• Plastic wrapping e.g. glad wrap
• Foil wrapping e.g. chip packets
• Plastic bags
• Foam cups/trays
• Tissues
• Food waste
• Anything else that can't be recycled

Recycling (yellow) - no food or liquid

• Aluminium cans e.g. soft drink cans
• Steel cans e.g. tuna tin
• Cartons e.g. milk and juice cartons
• 'Empty' coffee cups
• Glass bottles
• Plastic bottles
• Hard plastic containers
• Aerosols
• Paper and cardboard
