How We Recycle

• Paper—red-labeled bins—recycle all types of paper, including cereal boxes, pizza boxes, and juice cartons. Items need to be free of food residuals (no crusts in pizza boxes) and have no plastic (remove the pouring spout on juice cartons). Small amounts of metal (paperclips, staples) can go in the red bin.
• Containers–green bins—recycle all clean, empty containers made of glass, metal, and plastic. Flip your plastic container and look for the #s 1, 2, 4, 5 or 7. We can now recycle lids and screw tops.  Compostable cups and bowls cannot be recycled and should go to a compost bin or in the trash.
• Trash—black/gray containers—materials that can’t be reused, recycled, or composted go here (and on to the Ontario County Landfill 250 miles from Bard). The list of what has to go to the landfill gets smaller every year.
• Plastic 'Wraps'—recycle plastic wraps and bags at Hannaford Supermarket in Red Hook. If you are in the residence halls and unable to get to Hannaford, find your EcoRep or look for an EcoBox by your recycling station. Another option is to send your collection to BOS via campus mail.
• Computers and other electronics—we will recycle Bard equipment and equipment belonging to on-campus students and residents of faculty housing. If you live off campus or have personal items, view some suggestions here. 
• Miscellaneous materials—something not listed here? View the So You Think You Know How to Recycle? and Guidelines & Policies.
