Rubbish and Recycling

We're trying to keep our environmental footprint to a minimum. Here's what we can recycle in the lab/at Summerhall:

Material	Location in the lab	Final destination
Glass	Blue box in the G1 kitchen area	Glass bins in the Summerhall courtyard
Cans, plastics, paper, card and cardboard	The green box in the G1 kitchen area	“Dry mixed recylables” bins in the courtyard
WEEE (electrical/electronics)	Box marked “WEEE” (TODO: box and location to be determined)	A member will periodically take the WEEE to the local recycling centre
Tassimo coffee pods/packaging	Box under the sink	Ship to Terracyle, via Al

Other waste unfortuantly has to be landfilled. There are bins in the Summerhall courtyard

If you see the in-lab recycling is full, please empty it to the bins in the courtyard. The same goes for the landfill bins in the lab!
