Recycling program changes

The Recycling and Composting Programs for the WSU Pullman Campus will be undergoing significant changes to help address contamination issues, in order to adjust to Global Market changes for recycled Materials. Here are some of the changes to expect.

1) At WSU Pullman we will place an emphasis on materials with a positive market value and clean compost and recycling materials.

2) Our list of accepted materials will be shorter and more specific.

3) Locations that collect excessive contamination such as all outdoor containers will have the recycling option removed until we can raise awareness and compliance within the WSU community.

Look for future announcements regarding other upcoming changes.
