10 weeks + 10 million pounds = RecycleMania Success

RecycleMania logo

WasteWise partnered with the RecycleMania competition for the first time this year. Over a 10-week period, 47 colleges and universities across the United States recycled more than 10 million pounds! The competition between the schools was tight up until the end, but the recycling champions were Miami University in the Per Capita competition-recycling a total of 66 pounds per student over the 10 weeks-and California State University San Marcos with an overall total of 44 percent in the Recycling Rate competition. Congratulations to all the schools that participated in this successful event and contributed to diverting such a large amount of waste from disposal.

For more information and results, please visit the RecycleMania Web site. Exit EPA

Cardboard Boxes Available

Subaru of Indiana would like to get rid of some non-returnable cardboard boxes that its supplier will not take back, and the company cannot find another use for them.

The material is a thick, gaylord-style box with wooden supports in the corner. Each one weighs 21.5 lbs. The dimensions are 48" X 42" X 20".

If you'd like these boxes for reuse, please contact the WasteWise Helpline at (800) EPA-WISE (372-9473) or e-mail at <WasteWise@icfi.com>.
