Recycling

Recycling stations of different shapes and sizes can be found in the hallways in every building at UIC and should be no more than a few steps away from your office, classroom or lab. These stations usually consist of three bins (“Paper”; “Bottles & Cans”; and “Landfill”). You can recycle paper, broken-down cardboard, empty containers of glass and metal. Certain buildings also have collections for pipette tip boxes, batteries, writing utensils, and plastic bags (and other plastic “film”).
