No sorting necessary for recycling at UC-Boulder

New system allows all recyclables to be collected in one container.

Aug. 30—Recycling bins located throughout Housing and Dining Services at the University of Colorado, Boulder are now single-stream receptacles, helping to make landfill diversion as simple as can be.

The new system, implemented this week in residence halls, dining facilities and at the Center for Community, allows all recyclables to be tossed into one container, alleviating the task of sorting materials.

Recycling throughout the rest of the campus will remain a dual-stream system with “paper” and “co-mingled container” categories.
