What are the Radcliffe recycling policies?

The Radcliffe Institute takes pride in its award-winning recycling program.  Please help us make a difference by continuing this tradition.

Each Radcliffe building is equipped with blue recycling receptacles. Items that can be recycled include:

• Paper Products: Newspaper, magazines, white and colored paper, paperboard, corrugated cardboard, but no pizza boxes.
• Cans and Bottles: Glass, metal and plastic bottles and cans, without caps or food residue.
• Clothing: Dry clothing, shoes (tied together), leather goods, backpacks, and handbags.
• Refrigerators, Computer and Television Monitors: Whether they work or not.
• Batteries: All types, as long as they do not leak.
• Cardboard: Flattened boxes can be placed in an intact box and left in the recycling area.
• Clothing: Place in a plastic bag marked “Recycling” and leave in the recycling area.
• Computer and Television Monitors: Place in a box marked “Recycling” and leave it in the recycling area.
• Refrigerators: Make sure it’s defrosted and dry before leaving it in recycling room.
