Going Green @ Haverford

Fernandus Hall, Assistant Director of Facilities Management, Housekeeping Services, reports:

“We are currently revamping our recycling program.  Allied Waste Management – our waste management/ recycling vendor – has switched to a Single Stream System.  This system allows us to consolidate or various categories of recycling in one container.  As a result of Single Streaming we are going to stream-line our process.

So far this year we have recycled over 1,300.00 yards of recycling, paper, cardboard, cans, bottles and plastics.  We are hoping to expand our recycling effort to include more recycling items.

We are looking forward to working with Students and Staff in improving our recycling program.  Stay tuned for future updates.”
