TXST's recycling program is operated through a partnership. Waste Management oversees the recycling of glass, paper, cardboard, aluminum, plastic, and toners. Environmental Health, Safety, Risk & Emergency Management (EHSREM) assists Waste Management by collecting and recycling other miscellaneous items generated in relation to work and/or studies performed on the TXST campus.
Any batteries (except car batteries), cell phones, and ink jets that need to be recycled on the TXST campus may be placed in the green bins (pictured on the left) found around campus. The battery bins are emptied by EHSREM on a monthly basis.
Prior to recycling your cell phone, please ensure that you have erased your phone of all personal information. All university-owned cell phones that are no longer being used should be returned to ITAC.
EHSREM picks up bulbs around campus that are ready to be recycled. Please prepare for the pick up by placing your bulb in a cardboard box. DO NOT place bulbs in the green bins. Batteries and bulbs should not be mixed.
For information on other recyclable items, such as glass, plastic, aluminum, paper, carboard, and toners, please visit the Waste Management and Recycling website.
