A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for institution-generated materials:
Individual faculty and staff are responsible for contacting Physical Resources to recycle electronic waste. When requested, Physical Resources picks up institution generated electronic waste and stores it in a central collection facility. Once a substantial amount of electronic waste has been collected, Physical Resources drives the material over to the nearby Recycling Depot. For larger collections of electronic waste, Greentec drops off metal cages for Physical Resources staff to sort the e-waste in and when complete, Greentec comes back to pick the cages up.
