If the trash barrels are full, dispose of it in the building dumpster. Do not set trash in the hallway, toilet room or stairway or in any area other than the designated trash room. Residence Services will not dispose of large trash items, such as sofas or other furniture, TV sets, rolls of carpeting, etc. These items must be disposed of by the resident or they may be removed to the designated drop-off point at the end of the school year where they will be disposed of at no charge. Recycling in the Residence Halls Students wishing to recycle newsprint or office paper may do so by placing these materials in the designated recycling container in your building.
Most buildings have recycling drop-off barrels or stations located in the laundry rooms.
Hillcrest, Mayflower and Burge have large, outdoor roll-off containers for recycling. For the exact location of recycling containers in your building, contact your Resident Assistant or 24-hour desk. No collecting of recyclable materials is to be done in floor lounges, hallways, foyers, trash rooms, rest rooms or any space other than the designated recycling location. How to Dispose of Syringes and Needles Syringes, hypodermic needles and other sharps which may be considered infectious are not to be disposed of in any building trash container or dumpster. All such waste must be disposed of by the user in a designated sharps container.
