About the General Waste & Recycling category

This sub-category is for discussions about general waste and recycling systems across research institutions. Topics may include:

  • Mixed recycling, food waste, and landfill diversion

  • Segregation, signage, and contamination reduction

  • Campus-wide waste management contracts and providers

  • Staff and student engagement in recycling initiatives

  • Links to national waste targets and reporting

This complements Laboratory Waste (specialist waste streams) and Reduce, Re-use & Repair (waste prevention). Here the focus is on everyday campus waste and recycling systems.
