A brief description of the program:
The "Free Chemicals" Chemical Redistribution Program has been active for over 20 years. At the time of submitting requests for chemical waste collection, labs can check that containers are recyclable. Often the most valuable caches of reusable chemicals are found when researchers leave the University. Staff will then review the materials and have set aside unopened containers of high value or commonly used chemicals for storage at the Thompson Center. Chemicals are listed on the website and can be ordered by other labs for delivery.
