HSC Facilities Management Services is phasing in a change throughout campus to trash and recycling collection. To increase efficiency and save resources, we are creating conveniently located trash and recycling centers in your work areas.
What this means for you: Daily trash and recycling will no longer be collected starting on 2/24/2025 from individual offices or desk areas. If you would prefer to keep a trash can and/or recycling bin in your office or desk area, please put a sticky note that says “KEEP” on them by 2/20/2024. You will then be responsible for emptying those receptacles at the end of each day at the trash and recycling center in your work area (trash bags will be provided). All office trash cans and/or recycling bins without notes on them will be removed on the 21st.
Please note that this does not apply to the HIPAA collection bins where employees place documents for shredding.
Thank you for your assistance with this collaboration between Facilities Management & the Office of Sustainability. If you have any questions, please email Marc.Melanson@unthsc.edu or Sandy.Bauman@unthsc.edu.
