America Recycles Day – MEGA Recycling Event

Saturday, Nov. 17
8 a.m.-1 p.m.
Hansen Student Center Parking Lot

IWU Wellness and the Ecology Action Center want to help make recycling easier for you on America Recycles Day. While most families recycle the usual — plastic food containers, glass bottles, newspapers — what about other items?

For one day only, residents can recycle “the other” recyclables all in one place, all at the same time. Bring us your:
• Electronics
• Compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs)
• Household batteries (alkaline, watch batteries, rechargeable batteries)
• Clothes and textiles (usable or not)
• Shoes (usable or not)
• Plastic Garden Pots
• Terracycle items

In addition, Confidential On-Site Paper Shredding (C.O.P.S.) will provide free confidential document shredding for residents.

This event is free and open to the public for residential waste only (no business waste). No hazardous wastes, chemicals, paints or large appliances accepted.

Volunteers are needed. Sign up here.
